El Paso Children’s Hospital, a 122-bed facility, has become a key pediatric healthcare provider in West Texas and Southern New Mexico, greatly reducing the need for children to seek treatment outside the region. Through the Southwest University Pediatric Blood and Cancer Center and partnerships with institutions like Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock, the hospital delivers specialized pediatric oncology care and conducts valuable research as a Children’s Oncology Group member. The hospital also supports families with innovative services, including a new urgent care facility offering accessible, cost-effective alternatives for minor emergencies. To further meet community needs, El Paso Children’s Hospital plans to open a new specialty center soon, broadening its healthcare offerings for the borderland. Additionally, the hospital’s quality improvement measures have led to a three-year streak with zero central line infections, saving healthcare costs and boosting patient safety. Partnerships with national and local organizations have brought in millions in grants, supporting the hospital’s continuous growth and commitment to pediatric health.
