The time has come to completely redesign the Nemours Children’s Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders. Our facility must evolve to meet the growing needs of patients and their families seeking our expertise. Creating home-like spaces and a highly supportive environment for families goes hand in hand with ensuring the best possible outcomes for kids.
