About Nemours
Nemours is one of the nation’s premier pediatric health systems and is dedicated to achieving higher standards in children’s health. Nemours offers an integrated spectrum of clinical treatment coupled with research, advocacy, and educational health and prevention services extending to all families in the communities it serves. Starting with Alfred I. duPont’s bequest over 70 years ago, Nemours has grown into a multi-dimensional organization offering personalized clinical and preventive care focused on children.
Having received approval from the State of Florida, Nemours will establish a new full-service children’s hospital as part of an integrated pediatric health campus in Orlando.
Nemours owns and operates:
- The Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Wilmington, Delaware
- The Nemours Children’s Clinic and Nemours Pediatrics in Delaware (Wilmington), Florida (Jacksonville, Orlando and Pensacola), Pennsylvania (Philadelphia and Bryn Mawr) and New Jersey (Atlantic City and Voorhees)
Nemours employs over 4,400 individuals, including 440 pediatric physicians, specialists and surgeons who cared for approximately a quarter of a million children in 2007. The organization’s goal is to align with parents, physicians, community leaders, children’s advocates and elected officials to ensure optimal wellness for every child.
KidsHealth.org, the world’s most visited pediatric health care web site for parents, kids and teens, is a project of Nemours.
