Institutional Overview

The Pediatric Critical Care division at UMGCH serves a high-acuity population of more than 1,000 patients per year. Our team practices a deeply integrated, family-centered model of care that embeds patient and family support directly into daily clinical workflows and communication.

This funding directly supports our upcoming expansion into the Stoler Center for Advanced Medicine, integrating state-of-the-art critical care facilities and cutting-edge therapies under a single, child-centered roof.

The division maintains an active academic and research presence through participation in national collaborative networks, including the PALISI Network, PC4, and Virtual Pediatric Systems. Faculty participate in active research initiatives in global health, blood physiology, hemostasis, and artificial blood development, among others.
