To create the pediatric rankings, we gather key clinical data from nearly 200 medical centers through a detailed survey that looks at measures such as patient safety, infection prevention and adequacy of nurse staffing. In addition, part of each hospital’s score is derived from surveys of more than 11,000 pediatric specialists who are asked where they would send the sickest children in their specialty. In 2019, only 84 children’s hospitals were ranked in at least one of the pediatric specialties we evaluate. Ten hospitals ranked at the top of their class and were named to the 2019-20 Honor Roll.
