The hospital is committed to meeting the ever-changing health needs of children in an environment that integrates excellence in the delivery of care, education, and research. Staffed by highly-skilled child health professionals from around the world, the Stollery Children's Hospital is a well-recognized centre for specialized pediatric health services and is located within Edmonton, Alberta's Walter C. Mackenzie Health Sciences Centre.

The Stollery Children's Hospital practices family-centered care, where the child and family can be together during the child's treatment. Family lounges are the heart of the inpatient units. They have informal spaces for family gatherings, built-in beds for parents in the child's room, and improved play areas for children on each of the renovated units.
