Our Mission...

East Tennessee Children's Hospital will improve the health of children through exceptional, comprehensive family-centered care, wellness, and education.


Our Vision...

Leading the Way to Healthy Children


Our Philosophy...

"Because Children are Special...

...they deserve the best possible health care given in a positive, child/family centered atmosphere of friendliness, cooperation, and support - regardless of race, religion, or ability to pay."

...their medical needs are closely related to their emotional and informational needs; therefore, the total child must be considered in treating any illness or injury."

...their health care requires family involvement, special understanding, special equipment, and specially trained personnel who recognize that children are not miniature adults."

...their health care can best be provided by a facility with a well trained medical and hospital staff whose only interests and concerns are with the total health and well-being of infants, children, and adolescents."
