Finding Us: This neonatology unit is part of the Avera Children’s Hospital inside Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center near 21st Street and Cliff Avenue. Due to on-campus construction and some road and parking lot closures, we recommend you allow extra time to get to your destination. For parking, it’s best to access the free ramps via 20th Street, and then take the skywalk into the main hospital and go up on the elevators. Valet service remains available at the main hospital entrance. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. See the latest map and construction updates.
