The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia receives highest national recognition for nursing excellence
The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia has been awarded Magnet Status for Nursing Excellence by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), an arm of the American Nurses Association. Only 102 hospitals nationwide have achieved this coveted status. Children's Hospital is the first pediatric hospital in Pennsylvania to receive the Magnet designation and is one of only five Magnet-designated healthcare organizations in the state.

The Magnet Recognition Program was established in 1993 to recognize healthcare organizations that provide the highest quality nursing care and a professional environment that supports opportunities for growth and development of nursing staff. It is the most prestigious recognition that the American Nurses Credentialing Center can bestow on organized nursing services in the national and international healthcare community.

Magnet Status is granted only to hospitals that undergo a rigorous, voluntary evaluation process. In order to achieve Magnet Status, a hospital must successfully meet or exceed expectations in 14 performance criteria including, clinical competence and assessment, education, certification, cultural diversity and collaboration. The hospital is judged based on extensive documentation and onsite inspections.
