Peds Collab Preview | Elevate patient care through health literacy

Join us in Los Angeles, March 19–20, for the 2025 Pediatric Collaborative with Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Engage with your peers in pediatrics, embrace best practices, and collaborate on strategies to prioritize human-centered care. This year’s lineup includes many great presentations, including a session that aims to illuminate the importance of health literacy as a foundational element of patient care.

Personalizing the pediatric perioperative patient experience

When 70% of your patients are younger than ten years old, and 75% of them experience preoperative anxiety, you need to get creative about personalizing patient experiences to ease fears—especially for children with special needs. So that’s just what Dayton Children’s Hospital leaders accomplished in their perioperative environments, by developing sensory-friendly environments to aid in individualizing their patient experience for children.
