Safety, Quality and Outcomes

How good is the care we provide? We measure the safety and quality of our care so we can work to make it even better. We share how we're doing because we want to help you make the best and most informed decisions about your child's care.

Our hospital has received many awards for the safety and quality of our care. While we are proud of these awards, we continue to work to improve. We need your help to do this. Please ask questions about your child's care, and tell us if you notice something unsafe in our hospital or clinics.
