Like most U.S. hospitals, Cincinnati Children's is affected by the IV fluid shortage caused by damage to Baxter International's North Carolina production facility during Hurricane Helene. Our teams will continue to watch this situation and will provide any updates as needed.
Members of the pediatric palliative care team at Cincinnati Children’s are identified as leaders in quality improvement (QI) and safety in our field: in 2017, we hosted the inaugural “QI Methods in Pediatric Palliative Care” workshop, and for the past 3 years, our team members have won the AAP Section of Hospice and Palliative Medicine Young Investigator Award at the AAP Conference, for QI work.
