Plain and simple… we take care of kids! For parents, and for us here at EIRMC, children always come first. This is why EIRMC has a large spectrum of healthcare services for children of all ages and needs. For many years, we’ve cared for children in places all across our hospital, whether in our emergency room, on our pediatric floor, our behavioral center, or in our therapies department, like speech. Our goal is to care for your children close to home, so that your family can receive the full encouragement and help of your family, friends and extended support network.

Each and every day, our dedicated team of physicians, nurses, therapists and support staff work to provide exceptional care and service to our patients and their families. Together with our physician partners, we are the leading neonatal and pediatric provider in the region. We work with care providers and hospitals throughout Idaho, Wyoming, Montana and Utah to offer the most comprehensive and advanced health programs, as well as access to sub-specialties for children from birth to 18 years old.
