Visiting with Legislators

Visiting with legislators is the most important part of Family Advocacy Day.  It's really important for us to share with our legislators the importance of children's hospitals and pediatric specialists.

Here are some photos from our visits with our Ohio legislators.

Congressman Jim Jordan visits Dayton Children's

At Dayton Children's we know how important it is to share with our legislators some of our amazing successes, as well as some of the challenges we face as the region's children's hospital.  Today, Congressman Jim Jordan visited Dayton Children's to learn more about our newly launched clinical information system, our many iniatives and awards for patient safety and our unique residency program that we conduct in partnership with Wright Patterson Air Force Base. We also shared some of our concerns about health care reform and the importance of appropriate Medicaid reimbursement to ensure access to health care for children. Thank you Congressman Jordan for visiting us today!
