Summary
| Description | The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) is a children's hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with its primary campus located in the University City neighborhood of West Philadelphia next to the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. The hospital has 557 beds and more than 1 million outpatient and inpatient visits each year. It is one of the largest and oldest children's hospitals in the world, and United States' first hospital dedicated to the healthcare of children. CHOP has been ranked as the best children's hospital in the United States by U.S. News & World Report and Parents Magazine in recent years. As of 2020, it was ranked number one in the nation by U.S. News for three out of ten specialties. The hospital treats infants, children, teens, and young adults aged 0–21. The hospital also treats adults that would benefit from advanced pediatric care. The hospital is located next to the University of Pennsylvania and its physicians serve as the pediatrics department of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. In June 2018, CHOP announced their plans to build a second children's hospital campus in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. The hospital is planned to have a capacity of 52-beds, with expansion potential to 108-beds. In September, 2019 Swedish construction firm, Skanska broke ground on the new building. The hospital is expected to cost $298 million and consist of 7 floors and 250,000-square feet. The new hospital will be built adjacent to where CHOP already operates a specialty care and outpatient surgery center. In the wake of the 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic, CHOP officials released that they were considering adding beds to the shell space to total 108-beds. The hospital is expected to open in October 2021. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children's_Hospital_of_Philadelphia" rel="noreferrer nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_Hospital_of_Philadelphia</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License" rel="noreferrer nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_...</a> |
