Pediatric Treatment Room Floor Covering

[Guest guest]

If you were renovating/remodeling a room with the goal of becoming a

pediatric treatment room, what would you consider for floor cover?

I am renovating a room that is on a cement slab. Cold and hard as

rock. It is time to pick the floor cover. The room is 50 long x 36

wide.

This is a pediatric PT site. If I could afford the rubberized indoor

gym surface, I would do it. Not sure what the cost will be. Anyone

have any companies in mind that could give me an estimate?

What alternative floor covers have worked for other pediatric

treatment rooms/gyms?

Thank you,

In order to ensure maximum safety, we have all our our pediatric

treatment rooms surfaced with padded tile. That way, if a child rolls

off of the mat, the surface is still more forgiving than standard tile

or other hard surfaces.
