Kimberly and Chad Johnson sit with their 17-year-old son Blake during the grand opening of Dell Children's Comprehensive Care Clinic on Aug. 11.
“I had to quit my job. I’m his primary caregiver,” Johnson said. “For every system of his body, we see a different specialist.” Dr. Rahel Berhane, medical director of Dell Children’s Comprehensive Care Clinic, has been a longtime advocate of this union. Berhane has watched Dell Children’s Comprehensive Care Clinic evolve with the first location in 2012 that started with two makeshift exam rooms to what she says is finally a clinic that is designed for her patients’ and families’ physical and logistical needs.
The new clinic takes into consideration that many patients find noise and certain lighting to be disturbing. To accommodate sensory triggers, the clinic has a padded wall that looks like a xylophone and plays soothing sounds adjacent to the waiting room. In the procedure room, there's a long tube that has bubbles that change color and disperses aromatherapy. The exam rooms are wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs and multiple caregivers.
dellchildrens What an excellent idea!
