Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Center

About

The Mayo Family Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Center (PPRC) at Boston Children's Hospital is a day treatment rehabilitative program for children and adolescents between 8 and 17 years of age, who experience ongoing chronic pain and limitations in completing typical daily activities after they have tried outpatient treatments. The PPRC operates on a day-hospital model of rehabilitation, working with up to eight children and their caregivers at a time. This program involves participating in pain rehabilitation for eight hours per day on weekdays, and completing additional requirements in the evenings and on weekends.
