Kids Come First

At Golisano Children's at UK, caring for kids and their families is at the heart of everything we do. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll find an expert team and top-of-the-line facilities devoted to providing the very best care for Kentucky’s kids.
 
Our doctors, nurses, therapists, and other staff provide nationally ranked care for kids of all ages. Whether the issue is large or small, we tailor our treatment to their changing needs and provide support every step of the way so they can get back to their lives as quickly as possible.

When a child is sick or injured, it affects the entire family. That’s why we proudly focus on a family-centered approach to care.

• Our dedicated doctors, nurses and pediatric experts are specially trained to care for kids.
• We have two nationally ranked specialty programs — pediatric adolescent & behavioral health, and our joint pediatric heart program with Cincinnati Children’s — as recognized by U.S. News & World Report.
• We are home to the region’s highest-level Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), caring for the most vulnerable newborns.
• Our Children’s Sedation and Procedure Unit has been redesignated as a Center of Excellence by the Society for Pediatric Sedation — one of only four institutions in the world to receive this honor twice.
• Our Makenna David Pediatric Emergency Center is the region’s only emergency center created and designated just for children.

With more than 30 specialties just for children — from cancer care to surgery and behavioral health — kids will always come first at Golisano Children's at UK.
