Ms. Jaros leads Wolfson Children’s Hospital, the only full-service pediatric hospital in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. Her strategic and operational oversight ensures the region’s youngest patients have access to high-quality, compassionate care. Ms. Jaros spearheaded the creation of a new 20-bed pediatric behavioral health unit, and raised nearly $9 million through legislative and philanthropic advocacy to close critical service gaps. In fall 2025, the hospital will become the official children’s hospital of the city’s football team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, indicating community integration and brand evolution under her leadership. Her work reflects a dual focus on elevating clinical excellence and building strategic partnerships, while also serving on multiple boards and advancing healthcare advocacy. In 2024, she guided Wolfson Children’s Hospital to national recognition from U.S. News & World Report in four specialties and secured The Leapfrog Group’s “Top Children’s Hospital” designation.
