Why SickKids? The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is a world-leading children’s hospital with a mission: Healthier Children. A better world.™ From opening Canada’s first department of Critical Care Medicine in 1981, to discovering the gene for cystic fibrosis in 1989, to creating the world’s first ‘atlas’ of cancer in 2023, SickKids has been delivering on its mission. For 150 years. Today, the Hospital sees over 130,000 patients a year, treating everything from broken arms to appendicitis to rare brain cancers to fetal heart defects. What’s next? Precision Child Health—a shift to health care that is individualized to each patient’s characteristics Precision Child Health is the future because it's the end of 'one-size-fits-all medicine'. It's one-child-at-a-time medicine. It means focusing deeply, precisely on everything that makes each individual patient who they are, from their genetic code to their postal code, to every signal their body sends. SickKids is going to keep healing Canada, and the world. And we’re going to heal the future. Join us.
