For the twelfth year in a row, Children's Hospital Boston has been rated the best hospital specializing in pediatric care in the nation, according to a survey by U.S. News & World Report. Children's Hospital Boston is a 325-bed comprehensive center for pediatric health care. As the largest pediatric medical center in the United States, Children's offers a complete range of health care services for children from 15 weeks gestation through 21 years of age (and older in special cases).

Children's records approximately 18,000 inpatient admissions each year, and our more than 150 outpatient programs and emergency services care for more than 300,000 patients annually. The hospital also performs 120,000 radiological examinations every year. Children's is the primary pediatric teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School, where most of our physicians hold faculty appointments. The hospital's clinical staff includes approximately 800 active medical and dental staff, 700 residents and fellows, and 3,300 full-time employees, including a Patient Services staff of approximately 800, and 850 volunteers.

Children's Hospital Boston is also home to the world's largest pediatric research facility. In the John F. Enders Pediatric Research laboratories, named for the Nobel Prize recipient who cultured the polio and measles viruses at Children's, hundreds of laboratory researchers and physician investigators search for answers to some of the most perplexing childhood diseases.

Through the years, scientists at Children's have set the pace in pediatric research, identifying treatments and therapies for many debilitating childhood diseases. And children's researchers have been instrumental in eradicating some of the most serious illnesses that for generations threatened young lives.
