About

HealthWorks! is the educational arm of Memorial Children’s Hospital, providing irresistible health 'edutainment' to kids of all ages.

Story

HealthWorks! has been infectiously contaminating kids of all ages since our doors first opened in February 2000. About two years earlier the leadership of Memorial Health System and Memorial Health Foundation, inspired by Memorial’s vision of becoming the healthiest community in the nation, began dreaming about a bold and innovative way to reach kids.

They knew that new and different approaches were needed to give children the passion and courage to lead inspired and healthy lives. They also knew that they didn’t know a lot about how to do this… but they boldly moved forward, learning at the speed of light as they visited dozens of facilities and joined forces with many experts from both our local community and from across the country.

Very quickly, the vision changed from dream to reality with the development and creation of HealthWorks!, a one-of-a-kind place that merges the best of both worlds from children’s museums and health education centers with our own creative spin.

Today, we are the educational arm of Memorial Children’s Hospital and over half a million people have experienced our irresistible health edutainment through field trips, community outreach programs, birthday parties, special events, and general admission visits. And though our facility is important, HealthWorks! is really about people and the way we interact.

Reviews
Small but educational. Good place to learn a bunch (even for grown ups). Only $6 to get in, and worth the value. Was disappointed to learn that they don't change things up. Some displays & interactive items were malfunctioning. But there were a lot of learning points where kids could learn from. Active kids though might be constantly distracted by the 'next thing' and not get the full take-away points & learn. Large sized 'operation' game was fun. There was a kid sized rock climbing wall with a super squishy floor if they fall. Overall, a good place to visit & learn stuff. I would recommend.

Kinda small and simple, but it's cheap and the kids have a blast while learning a thing or 2.

Ceiling was leaking. Attendant said it was from the pool upstairs. Buckets set around to catch the drips. Minimal activities for the price.
