Manning Family Children's, formerly Children's Hospital New Orleans, is a not-for-profit freestanding pediatric medical center based in New Orleans, Louisiana, with a history tracing back to 1955. It positions itself as the Gulf South's only freestanding comprehensive children's hospital, supported by a 263-bed facility, more than 40 pediatric subspecialties, 600 pediatric-trained providers, and a staff of about 3,000 dedicated to pediatric care. The center serves patients from birth through age 21 and is aligned with a mission to advance child health across Louisiana and the wider region, reflecting its long-standing community focus. The hospital's clinical program includes a 36-bed Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, a 17-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, and a 28-bed Cardiac Intensive Care Unit, complemented by the nationally recognized Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders. In 2024 the organization reported more than 275,000 clinic visits, 64,354 emergency department visits, and 13,265 surgical cases, and its helicopter Abby transported 331 patients for critical care. A transformational partnership with the Manning family led to the adoption of the Manning Family Children's name and supports a broader aim to elevate Louisiana as a national leader in child health.
