A welcome sign autographed by Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson greets patients and their families.

The 20 private patient rooms and four observation rooms on the 10^th floor, made possible by the Carolina Panthers, primarily serve school-aged children hospitalized for a variety of medical conditions and for surgery of various types (general surgery, urology, orthopaedic).  This floor reflects the spirit of the Panthers, featuring player pictures, team colors and other football-related themes.  All patients receive autographed posters when they check into their rooms. 

Patient rooms on this floor are large enough to accommodate school-aged children and their families, and the Panther's floor features a large playroom for school-aged children, as well as a classroom where they can keep up with school assignments.
