George Mark Children's House provides respite, transitional, and end-of-life care for children and young adults with serious medical conditions, including cancer. Located on a beautiful 5-acre property in San Leandro, California, this pediatric palliative care center feels like home with themed patient rooms, family suites, gardens, and healing spaces like Hummingbird Hill and an aquatic therapy pool.
Families can stay together in their own family suite while their child receives 24/7 compassionate care from nurses, therapists, and social workers. The facility offers respite care so parents can take a break from around-the-clock caregiving, transitional care to help families manage their child's health after hospital discharge, and gentle end-of-life care. Children enjoy art rooms, play areas, outdoor spaces, and visits from therapy animals while creating precious memories with their loved ones.
