About the A. I. duPont Hospital for Children
Since our founding in 1940, the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children has served thousands of children from across the country and around the world. The hospital is a division of Nemours, which operates one of the nations largest subspecialty group practices devoted to pediatric patient care, teaching, and research. Located just outside of Wilmington, Delaware, on 300 acres of parkland, the hospital offers a remarkably beautiful and tranquil setting in which to heal.
Originally founded as an orthopedic facility, we are now a 180-bed hospital that offers all the specialties of pediatric medicine, surgery, and dentistry in a spacious, comfortable, and family-focused facility. Children from birth through age 17 with acute, chronic, and complex health problems benefit from the threefold mission established by our founders - excellence in patient care, education, and research.
The Nemours Children’s Clinic - Wilmington (NCC-W) provides the physician services of the hospital at its main campus, and at pediatric primary and specialty care locations throughout Delaware, southeastern Pennsylvania, and southern New Jersey. Together the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children and NCC-W are the academic partner of Thomas Jefferson University and the pediatric provider to the Jefferson Health System and its members and affiliates.
The mission of Nemours, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, is to provide services to restore and improve the health of children. Nemours operating entities in Delaware and Florida manage nearly one million patient visits each year.
