While you’re at Boston Children’s

You may also benefit from some of our digital health initiatives while you’re at the hospital.

Voice transcription

Some providers are using Ambient Clinical Documentation (ACD) to have their visits notes automatically generated — giving you more time with your provider during appointments.

Video visits

If your child is admitted for inpatient care, providers may use Zoom in place of bedside visits.

Voice-powered care assistance

During your or your child’s stay, there may be a smart speaker available in your room. This allows access to entertainment options such as music and kid-friendly games, education tools, and control of the TV in some rooms.
