Children's Health
As one of the largest and most prestigious health care providers in the country and the leading pediatric health care system in North Texas, Children’s Health cares for children through more than 919,000 patient visits annually. The Children’s Health system includes our flagship hospital, Children’s Medical Center Dallas, as well as Children’s Medical Center Plano. Our Children’s Health inpatient rehabilitation hospital, the Children’s Health Care Network, specialty centers, rehabilitation facilities and physician services. Through our academic affiliation with UT Southwestern Medical Center, Children’s Health makes life better for children through life-changing treatments, innovative technology, ground-breaking research and unparalleled patient experience.
Purpose
Since our humble beginnings in 1913 as a baby camp, we have had a long-standing commitment to our community that includes not only high-quality patient care but also advocacy, education and preventive care with an unwavering focus on our mission.
Vision
As the North Texas community grows, we remain committed to preserving Children’s Health Founder Nurse May Smith’s spirit of courage, dedication to excellence and service to the families in our communities, while continually evolving and advancing our world-class care.
Mission
For more than 100 years, the mission of Children’s Health has been to make life better for children.
Additional Culture Details
To maintain and strength our award-winning culture of appreciation and recognition amid historic staffing increases, our Recognizing Employee Dedication (RED) Program promotes leader-led engagement and peer-to-peer recognition. Leaders can arrange for special treats to be delivered to both remote and onsite teams to recognize them in a tangible and experiential way for a specific occasion (i.e., recent achievement, demonstrating resiliency or another notable success). Plus, an accompanying online platform offers Children’s Health team members the ability to send words of affirmation to colleagues, as well as tie their actions to one of our shared organizational values. Through this program, team members celebrating milestone work anniversaries also receive special vouchers for gift redemption, an especially important practice as our team members are far more tenured than comparable organizations.
