Children's Hospital Colorado


Coronavirus Updates

Normal life looks a lot different these days, especially in healthcare. But there is one thing that hasn’t changed at Children’s Colorado: Your child’s health and safety are our highest priority. Kids need great pediatric care as much now as ever, and it’s for that reason that we’re reactivating services we temporarily suspended due to the pandemic. We are here to deliver safe, thoughtful, high-quality care for kids who need it. Learn what to expect – and all the ways we’re keeping patients safe. 

For ongoing updates, a list of open locations and how to get care virtually or in person, please see our coronavirus resources for parents and resources for healthcare professionals. For questions about visiting our locations, such as face covering requirements, inpatient visitation and outpatient appointments, please see our visitation policies.

Emergency and urgent care locations

If you're concerned that you or your child may have been exposed to COVID-19, please do NOT visit an emergency or urgent care location. Instead, call your doctor or our free ParentSmart Healthline at 720-777-0123 for guidance.

In life-threatening emergencies, find the emergency room location nearest you. For non-life-threatening medical needs when your pediatrician is unavailable, visit one of our urgent care locations.
