About Us

The Kentucky Children's Hospital is the only facility in Central and Eastern Kentucky dedicated to the expert medical and surgical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The University of Kentucky has a proud and distinguished history of providing comprehensive programs and innovative care to the children of the region.

The approach at the Kentucky Children's Hospital is focused upon family-centered care. Full-time child life coverage, facilities for families to stay with children overnight, age-appropriate playrooms, children's library facilities, in-hospital school services, a dedicated television channel, a computer laboratory, and many other features provide the special environment to provide the best of care for children. The hospital remains committed to improving the lives and health of the children of the Commonwealth and improving the future for their families. Our clinical care, educational programs, and research initiatives all reflect that commitment.

The efforts of Evening of Champions and the Makenna Foundation will continue to raise funds for the newly named Makenna David Pediatric Emergency Center. We are proud to have the opportunity to be a large part of the new state-of-the-art children’s emergency facility opening in July 2010 that will offer bright, colorful and cheerful surroundings specially designed for the treatment of Kentucky’s children.
