Children's Health is a pediatric health care system in North Texas anchored by two hospitals, Children's Medical Center Dallas and Children's Medical Center Plano, as well as seven specialty centers and 19 pediatric clinics located throughout the region.[1] A private, not-for-profit organization, Children's Health provides pediatric health, wellness and acute care services for children from birth to age 21, including specialty care, primary care, home health, a pediatric research institute, and community outreach services.[2]
According to Beckers Hospital Review, Children's Health is the fifth largest pediatric healthcare provider in the nation.[3] Children's Health is also a pediatric kidney, liver, heart, bowel, and bone marrow transplant center, and includes a designated Level 1 trauma center.[4][5]
Until 2014, Children's Health was known by the name of its main hospital, Children's Medical Center Dallas. In September 2014, it rebranded as Children's Health, legally known as Children's Health System of Texas.[6]
