Ducky’s Room

at Akron Children’s

A private waiting space for families whose children are undergoing heart surgery. This space is born out of our first-hand experience during Daphne’s surgery day.

We want families to feel comfortable and have a sense of privacy as they are at some of their most vulnerable moments.
