About us

Nemours is committed to improving the health of children. As a non-profit children’s health organization, we consider the health of every child to be a sacred trust. Through family-centered care in our children’s hospitals and clinics in Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida, as well as world-changing research, education and advocacy, Nemours fulfills the promise of a healthier tomorrow for all children — even those who may never enter our doors. Nemours began more than 80 years ago with the vision of Alfred I. duPont to improve the lives of children and to do whatever it takes to prevent and treat even the most disabling childhood conditions. Today, through our children’s hospitals and health system, we directly care for 250,000 children annually in Delaware Valley and Florida, including families who travel from across the country and world to see our specialists — treating every child as we would our own. We also reach beyond the walls of our hospitals and clinics to be a voice for children on a national and international level, and to lead the way in prevention, intervention, education, and research. Nemours is growing to better serve the children and families in our care. We have 1.1 million square feet of space currently devoted to providing children’s healthcare or under construction, all designed with significant input and advice from our patients and families.

  • Meet Monique, also known as “Nurse Mo”! With 27 years in nursing, 23 of those years have been in Maternal Child Health, specifically labor and delivery. “I wanted to be a nurse to help people, and I thought helping families bring a newborn bundle of joy into the world would be a great way. I’ve been at Nemours Children’s Advanced Delivery unit for three years. Our setting can evoke mixed emotions, as families may have heavy hearts knowing their child has been diagnosed with a complex medical issue. On the other hand, there is comfort in knowing there is a place like Nemours that can care for their family. For me, being part of the team in my role as a nurse to help these families is an indescribable reward.” As we recognize Perinatal Nurses Week, we’re honored to have compassionate team members such as Nurse Mo, helping take care of families in need. Happy Perinatal Nurses Week!

  • What does it take to pursue a childhood dream against all odds? To celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, we sit down with Adela Casas-Melley, MD, Chair of Surgery, Nemours Children's Health. Born in Cuba and raised in Miami, Dr. Casas-Melley became the first in her family to attend college and through resilience and determination, achieved her lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. She reflects on breaking barriers as a woman in a male-dominated field, the power of mentorship and her deep commitment to improving health outcomes for children.
