Lehigh Valley Hospital Accepted Into National Pediatric Group

Already a regional leader in pediatric health care, Lehigh Valley Hospital will be even better-equipped to care for children since it was accepted as an associate member of the National Association of Children’s Hospitals and Related Institutions (NACHRI). The not-for-profit organization acts as a collective voice for health systems devoted to the well-being of children and their families.

“Membership in NACHRI offers us a vast communications network with others who understand children, their needs, their treatment and how to develop clinical programs for them,” says John Van Brakle, M.D., chair of pediatrics at the hospital. NACHRI membership is based on such factors as volume of patients, presence of graduate medical education and recognition as a referral center.
