Nursing at Nemours Children's
Advancing Children's Health Through Nursing
At Nemours, nursing is more than just a department; it is a philosophy embodied by every nursing associate — that we are shared guardians of children’s health and joy. Our nurses have a gift for caring for children and the needs of their families.
As dedicated professionals, our nurses support an environment of opportunity for personal growth and professional development, teaching each other and our patients and families important aspects of care.
Throughout Nemours, in our hospitals, specialty care clinics, and in outpatient and inpatient settings, our nurses use their experience and knowledge to translate research into evidence-based practice, continuously improving the safety and quality of our family-centered care.

“Our nurses have a critical role in providing the highest quality care to our patients and their families. Shared governance is the foundation that allows clinical nurses to have a meaningful voice in the quality, practice, research and educational aspects of their practice. The strength of this structure has positioned us to embrace an interprofessional model of governance in which nurses will continue to be excellent professionals and strong partners".
