      About St. Christopher's Hospital for Children

      St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children, a partnership between Tower Health and Drexel University, is a 188-bed facility that provides exceptional care to children throughout the Greater Philadelphia area and surrounding counties.

      St. Christopher's has more than 220 pediatric experts on staff, combining top-notch pediatric care with a wide array of pediatric specialties including Cardiology, Ear, Nose and Throat, Gastroenterology, Oncology, and Orthopedics. It houses the only Verified Pediatric Burn Center between New York City and Baltimore and is one of only three Level I Pediatric Trauma Centers in Pennsylvania. St. Christopher’s is a Magnet® designated hospital and was recognized as a Women’s Choice Award Best Children’s Hospital.

      In addition to its main location in Philadelphia, the hospital has a growing network of primary and specialty care locations throughout the Philadelphia suburbs and New Jersey so your child's health conditions can be treated close to home.

      4 North is a 30-bed medical/surgical unit providing care to children of all ages with acute and chronic medical and surgical disease processes. Common disease processes include trauma, renal disease, urological disease, liver disease, asthma, and sickle cell disease, among other medical and surgical illnesses. Nurses have the unique opportunity to provide care to a diverse patient population. The unit emphasizes family centered care through a multidisciplinary team approach and patient/family education. The unit treats patients in the ages of infancy, to those yet to transition to adult care. The acuity mix for this unit is higher than the typical acuity for most Med/Surg units. The daily patient to Nurse ratio on this unit is often reduced based on high acuity cases.
