Children's Medical Facility Designed like a Castle to Open in Oceanside

Children in the Oceanside, CA region are about to gain new access to pediatric specialty services including primary and urgent care all under one roof. A grand opening for the new Sanford Children’s Clinic and Rady Children’s Hospital–San Diego facility will be held Thursday, March 24, 2011. The unique facility resembles a castle. In addition to a press conference, the Renaissance-like grand opening celebration features multiple activities for children, including face painting, storytelling, crafts, musicians and health information.

The new clinic is the result of a partnership between Sanford Children’s and Rady Children’s, as well as a philanthropic donation from The Wygod’s Rose Foundation to Sanford Health. The clinic is the second Sanford Children’s world clinic to open its doors. The first opened in Duncan, OK in 2009. The clinic is part of the initiatives outlined after a $400 million donation to Sanford Health from Denny Sanford in 2007.
