Family Resource Center

The Family Resource Center provides support and access to resources for families. It is a special place where families can find relaxation, conduct personal business in the business center and perhaps even forget for a little while that they are in a hospital.

While your child is a patient at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford, you can access the following services at the Family Resource Center:

• Catch up on work in a semi private office.
• Access the internet and computers.
• Print, Fax, or Scan Materials.
• Check out books from the Library for patients and siblings.
• Relax, Read, and/or enjoy a hot complimentary beverage.
• Obtain personal hygiene items such as toothbrushes and shampoo.

A Family Resource Center Coordinator is available to provide guidance and amenities. The Family Resource Center is located in the Main building lobby near Sophie’s Corner.

Parent's Place
Located within the Family Resource Center, Parent’s Place is a quiet space for caregivers to connect with parent mentors. Mentors can provide peer support, help caregivers partner with the health care team, understand available resources, and work through challenges—like learning to use MyChart. Two mentors are always on hand: one Spanish-speaking mentor and one who supports families of children with disabilities.

Parent’s Place is in the Family Resource Center Classroom, Main Building, G20.

Hours: Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m

All Caregivers are welcome!
