At SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital, talented caregivers provide the very best health care, living out our Mission every day.
Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God.
Since opening our doors in 1956 as the nation’s first freestanding Catholic children’s hospital, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon has remained steadfast in our commitment to exceptional and accessible health care. Over the years, we have proudly served over 10-million children in need from the bi-state region of Missouri and Illinois and beyond. Our devotion has never been stronger, and the need has never been greater. At Cardinal Glennon, we ensure our doors are always open for a child in need as we are more than just a hospital, we are a devoted partner in the health and well-being of families. The support from the Dana Brown Charitable Trust has been crucial in helping us continue this mission.
Over the past three decades, the Dana Brown Charitable Trust has supported the mission of Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. Their unparalleled support has touched every aspect of the hospital’s services, from cancer care, primary care, and the neonatal intensive care unit to providing patient and family support with MyChart Bedside. Dana Brown Charitable Trust was one of the first to support our Mobile Intensive Care Units fleet and ensured our transport team had the latest ventilator equipment. The legacy of Dana Brown is deeply ingrained in the fabric of Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.
When Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital sought support for the new hospital, the Dana Brown Charitable Trust again made its largest contribution. Their ongoing support is a testament to their commitment to our mission.
This historic campaign to build a cutting-edge pediatric hospital will be a significant milestone in the community’s healthcare landscape. With its advanced technology and expanded capacity to care for highly acute patients, it will ensure a brighter and healthier future for pediatric healthcare.
We are unwavering in our dedication to maintaining exceptional care for patients and families and continuing to attract and retain the best staff and providers, ensuring the highest quality of care for the community.
Groundbreaking for the critical care pediatric hospital started this spring, with a fall 2027 completion date.
