Recovery looks different for every child.
For some, it's learning to speak again. For others, it's holding a spoon, standing up, or walking down the hallway for the first time after a serious illness or injury.
At MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital, the inpatient pediatric rehabilitation team helps children work toward those moments every single day while allowing families to stay closer to home during recovery.

5 years. Thousands of hospital hallways walked. Countless families reminded that someone cares 💛
The Hospitality Cart continues to bring comfort directly to families with our partnership at MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children's Hospital and the R. Keith Summey Medical Pavilion. In 2025 alone, the cart served more than 94,000 people with snacks, drinks, toiletries, activities, and moments of kindness during long hospital days.
What may seem like a small gesture can mean everything to a parent spending hours at their child's bedside. Thank you to every volunteer, donor, supporter, and partner who has helped keep this program rolling for the past five years.

It takes an entire team of specialists to care for children with serious medical conditions.
At MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children's Hospital and across our statewide hospitals, pediatric perfusionists play a critical role during complex heart surgeries and in intensive care settings.
They operate and manage advanced heart and lung support systems that maintain circulation and oxygenation when a child’s heart or lungs need help during a procedure.
Their work might happen quietly in the background, but it’s essential to life-saving care.

Some lessons in nursing start long before the first shift.
This Mother’s Day, we’re sharing stories from MUSC Children’s Health nurses whose path into care began with watching their mothers.

What an incredible day at MUSC’s first-ever ECMO reunion!
Pediatric families who were once treated at MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital came together to reconnect, share their stories, and spend time with others who truly understand their journey.
ECMO is a form of life support that assists the heart and lungs while the body heals. For many families, it signifies a critical turning point in their care.
“My wish for these patients is that they can recover physically in terms of organ function and physical strength, but also in their mental strength,” said Dr. Luca Paoletti.
