• Inpatient chemotherapy is delivered at our modern children’s hospital, which will expand to 40 beds in 2026. Patients benefit from 24/7 pediatric hospitalist coverage and nursing care provided by APHON-certified chemotherapy nurses
• Our physicians provide both in-person and telephone consultative services to the ACNW Emergency Department and inpatient hospitalist team
• We are actively engaged in national research initiatives through the Children’s Oncology Group, POETIC, NACHO, and industry-supported clinical trials
• We collaborate closely with teams at Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock in the care of patients with bleeding disorders, vascular anomalies, sickle cell disease and neuro-oncology
