Kosair Children's Hospital

For more than 116 years, Kosair Children's Hospital and its predecessor hospitals have provided children of Kentucky and Southern Indianathe best health care available without regard to their families' ability to pay. Kosair Children's Hospital is Kentucky's only free-standing, full- service pediatric care facility dedicated exclusively to caring for children. The 263-bed hospital serves as the primary pediatric teaching facility for the University of Louisville School of Medicine. In 2007 Kosair Children’s Hospital was recognized for excellence in nursing care with a Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center. Kosair Children’s Hospital is the only magnet designated hospital in the city and one of only 20 children’s hospitals recognized in the country.
