When the new Children's Hospital opens in May 2009, it will set the standard for pediatric care nationwide. The new hospital building will serve as the centerpiece of the multi-phase development project that is situated on a 10-acre campus. Located in the Lawrenceville section of Pittsburgh, the new campus is one of the most ambitiously planned pediatric hospitals in the nation and includes an electronic health record that will make the hospital "paperless," environmentally friendly/green design, high-quality patient safety innovations; vehicles to achieve family comfort, cutting-edge research and premier pediatric clinical care.

"Children's new hospital campus will enable us to further advance pediatric health care for children of the local region and throughout the United States who come to us for care," said Roger A. Oxendale, Children's CEO. "The new campus will offer a setting for compassionate, state-of-the-art clinical care and top-quality academic pediatric programs - truly serving as one of the premier pediatric providers in the world."

Technological Sophistication

The new hospital incorporates an unprecedented level of technology that will advance patient care, reduce human error, and improve patient, visitor and staff safety while providing operating efficiencies to manage costs effectively. Children's will be among the first fully digital hospitals in the country.

For instance, Children's will be entirely "paperless," with a Computerized Provider Order Entry system as well as an electronic health record for every patient. Caregivers will be able to make order entries, report test results and view diagnostic images
