The health system ranked #1 for Cancer,
Gastroenterology & GI Surgery, and Pulmonology
& Lung Surgery.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 8, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Cincinnati Children's has once again been named to
U.S. News & World Report's Best Children's Hospitals Honor Roll
for the 2024-25 rankings. The Honor Roll is comprised of the top 10
pediatric hospitals in the nation out of 108 considered.
This year, Cincinnati Children's ranked No. 1 in three
specialties and placed in the top 10 for all 10 ranked specialties,
making it the only health system in the 13-state Midwest region—and
one of just two nationwide—to achieve this distinction.
In a significant change, Honor Roll hospitals are no longer
ranked in a specific order, a shift that began with adult hospitals
in 2023 and now applies to children's hospitals.
Additionally, Pediatric & Adolescent Behavioral Health has
been added to the rankings for the first time in more than 15
years. The initial list includes the top 50 hospitals, without a
specific order, with Cincinnati Children's among those
recognized.
"To be named one of the best pediatric hospitals in the nation
for more than 15 years is a distinct honor that each and every one
of our team members should celebrate," says Steve Davis, MD, MMM, president and CEO of
Cincinnati Children's. "Their relentless commitment to our patients
and families has made Cincinnati Children's a national leader where
the sickest kids around the world can come for the best possible
outcomes. I'm so proud to walk the halls of our health system and
see researchers, caregivers and support staff collaborating with a
'how might we?' mindset to providing the highest quality
care and researching the latest breakthroughs in medicine. These
rankings are a reminder for us to continue pushing the boundaries
of what is possible so that all kids can live their healthiest
lives."
Hospitals were ranked based on key clinical data that includes
measures such as patient outcomes, resources devoted directly to
patient care, and patient safety. The goal of these rankings is to
identify hospitals that provide the highest quality care for
children with the most serious or complex medical issues.
