When it opens in spring 2021, patients arriving at The Floating Hospital’s new clinic might ask “what’s cookin’ ” as part of their check-in routine.
Every December, The Floating Hospital hosts Candy Cane Lane. It’s a magical event for the families we host, where they experience the warmth and joy of the holiday season.
