These are situations most parents hope never happen: your child is riding a bike
and is hit by a car, or your child comes down with a severe case of pneumonia and
is rushed to the emergency room. In cases where your child’s health is at
stake, you want to know that the hospital emergency room is providing the best care
available. When the new emergency department opens in Hannon Tower in 2002, you can
be confident that your child will receive the most compassionate, quality care
available. That’s because Little Company of Mary Hospital is adding specialized
pediatric emergency care to the emergency services it provides South Bay-area
families.
“We believe this is the perfect opportunity to reach out to our younger
community,” said Mark Costa, president of Little Company of Mary Hospital
“Our philosophy is to provide quality care to each of our patients no matter
their age or ailment.”
It is that commitment to providing quality that brought physician Marianne Gausche-Hill,
MD, to Little Company of Mary’s Emergency Department. Board certified in both
Emergency Medicine and Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Dr.Gausche-Hill is one of 1,200
physicians nationwide who hold this distinction. She also is the first emergency
physician in the nation to have completed a pediatric emergency fellowship and passed
the sub-Board examination. She will be heading up the new Pediatric Emergency
Department.
