Children’s health is one of the most powerful and enduring investments we can make in our collective futures. That’s why children’s health warrants not only our attention but our most intentional focus. Pediatric environments present both the greatest challenges and the greatest opportunities, and for decades our teams and partners have been at the forefront of this conversation. Today, through Health Forward, we continue that leadership by looking ahead and asking—what’s next?

I love the symposium and that it brings perspectives from the advisory board, physicians, and industry experts – it’s broadening the horizon. It’s very critical for us to have this dialogue on the future of healthcare and start implementing because what we design now is going to stay for 50 years.
