Shriners Children’s new facility allows staff to continue to provide a wide range of services for children with orthopaedic conditions including:

• Clinic services: providing a family-centered, team approach to care. Patients will see specialty physicians, nurses, therapists and other pediatric-trained specialists in an environment designed for children.

• Radiology: providing digital X-ray service as well as EOS, which provides 3-D, full-body imaging with up to 85% lower radiation.
• Rehabilitation: providing physical and occupational therapy to help children build skills, strength and mobility needed for everyday activities.
  • Scoliosis specific exercise: a specialized physical therapy program that uses exercises, stretching and breathing to improve a patient’s scoliotic posture.
• Orthotics and prosthetics: offering orthotic and prosthetic services specifically for children, including upper and lower extremity prosthetic care, scoliosis bracing and a broad spectrum of pediatric orthotic services.
• Virtual visits: tele-health capabilities that enable video connection to patient homes and other remote sites across the region, creating more opportunities for access to children in need of pediatric orthopaedic services.
• Surgery services: When surgery is required, it will be performed by Shriners Children’s Twin Cities physicians at a nearby pediatric hospital.
