Where to Find Norton Children’s Cancer Institute
Addison Jo Blair Cancer Care Center
Located in the West Wing on the seventh floor of Norton Children’s Hospital
A generous gift through the Children’s Hospital Foundation from the Addison Jo Blair Foundation and Wes and Kelly Blair in honor of their daughter Addison who lost her battle to cancer allowed for updates to the oncology unit at Norton Children’s Hospital. The new theme reflects the Louisville skyline and Addison’s love of watching planes come and go from Louisville International Airport on their many visits from their Elizabethtown home.
The Cancer Care Center is designed for kids and their families. The unit features:
- Twelve dedicated oncology beds, five bone-marrow transplant beds and three beds for adolescents and young adults.
- Two playrooms: A separate safe playroom for patients and a family playroom for siblings and guests.
- A full kitchen and refreshment area in the family room.
- Ronald McDonald apartment in the unit for extended stays for bone marrow and stem cell transplant families.
- HEPA air filtration system with positive air pressure to create safe patient environment.
- Internet office area for families.
- Big screen projector for family movie time.
