The Mott Family Network is a nonprofit volunteer organization funded by corporate sponsors and charitable donations. The Mott Golf Classic is held every year to raise funds for this program. The Mott Family Network is our way to help patients and families stay connected to life outside the hospital during their hospital stay. Through the Mott Family Network, we provide personal computers and independent network connections at every bedside, all at no cost to the patient. Computer monitors are mounted on swinging arms attached to the wall behind the beds, with keyboard, mouse and joystick within reach. Headphones are available to minimize disruption to patient care. In addition, separate wall jacks have been installed to provide connections for personal laptops. The Network is a convenient and easy way for our young patients to keep up with schoolwork and access entertainment. By using a variety of online homework tools, they can stay in contact with teachers and up-to-date with lessons
