n to improve and communicate patient safety and quality of care.

The success of Packard Children's has also led to a major expansion of services. Recently, the hospital opened the first phase of its new Bass Center for Pediatric Cancer and Blood Diseases and a new South Bay Specialty Center in Los Gatos. Coming up later in 2008 will be the opening of a new 16,000 sq. ft. surgical center with seven operating suites and a new 20-bed cardiovascular intensive care unit.

"We're growing and building and taking on some of the most challenging cases from around the corner and around the world," said Dawes. "The U.S.News ranking reflects this, and it's wonderful to be recognized in this way."
