About The Position
At Cincinnati Children's, we come to work with one goal: to make children's health better. We believe in a holistic team approach, both in caring for patients and their families, and in advancing science and discovery. We strive to do better and find energy and inspiration in our shared purpose. If you want to be the best you can be, you can do it at Cincinnati Children's. Cincinnati Children's is recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a top 10 best children's hospitals in the nation for more than 15 years, second among all children's hospitals for National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding, and recognized as one of America's Best Large Employers (2025) and America's Best Employers for New Grads (2024). We are also one of the nation's America's Most Innovative Companies as noted by Fortune and consistently certified as a great place to work. Additionally, we are a Leading Disability Employer as noted by the National Organization on Disability and have been Magnet designated for the fourth consecutive time by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). At Cincinnati Children's, we want to ensure every visit is as safe, convenient, and comfortable as possible. Providing an exceptional level of care means reaching far beyond our medical expertise - that's where our Child Life Specialists come into action: promoting play, education, developmental progress, coping skills, and psychosocial support. Whether it is a trip to the Emergency Department, a short follow-up appointment, or an inpatient stay, a visit to the hospital can be a scary and overwhelming experience - for patients, siblings, and their families.
