Kosair Children's Hospital

Louisville, Kentucky

For more than a century, Kosair Children's Hospital and its predecessor hospitals have cared for the children of Kentucky and Southern Indiana without regard to their families' ability to pay. Kosair Children's Hospital is Kentucky's only full-service, free-standing pediatric care facility dedicated exclusively to caring for children and is an advocate for the health and well-being of all children. The 263-bed hospital, supported by the Children's Hospital Foundation, serves as the primary pediatric teaching facility for the University Of Louisville School Of Medicine. Asthma is the most common diagnosis among hospitalized children. It is also the leading cause of emergency room visits and school absenteeism. Childhood Asthma Care and Education Center is exclusively dedicated to helping treat children with asthma.
