We know not all families can afford water-resistant casts, so we’ve partnered with Smith Brothers Plastering to create Splash Academy. Ask your provider if your child’s condition qualifies for water-resistant casting.
*Not all fractures can be treated with water-resistant casts. Your provider can tell you if your type of fracture qualifies.
If you also want to help Jacksonville families, please consider making a donation to the Splash Academy, visit secure.qgiv.com/for/splashacademydonationform

Nemours associates provide school and sports physicals to children without insurance. We had an opportunity to serve over 200 children again this year. We partner with Who We Play For to provide high school students EKGs and The Gift for Teaching to provide backpacks and school supplies. This is another example of how Nemours goes Well Beyond Medicine to help children in our community.

The fellowship has obtained initial accreditation through the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
The two-year program will provide clinical training for one fellow per year in multiple settings, in addition to academic mentorship, administrative guidance and research instruction. Participants may obtain a Master of Science degree (MS in Healthcare Quality and Safety, MS in Population Health, MS in Health Policy, MS in Applied Health Economics and Outcomes Research or MS in Population Health Intelligence) from Thomas Jefferson University, a Master of Science in Clinical Research from the Medical University of South Carolina, or credits toward a Master of Public Health at Jefferson or a Master of Education online.
The fellowship is within our hospital’s Division of General Pediatrics, Department of Pediatrics and Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. The division is composed of pediatricians and staff in general pediatrics, hospital medicine, internal medicine pediatrics and child abuse pediatrics, and offers an array of educational opportunities for both faculty and fellows. We currently have thirteen hospitalists that function in various roles at the main hospital site. We also collaborate closely with colleagues in weight management, adolescent medicine, transitions of care, cerebral palsy orthopedics, and physical medicine/rehabilitation.
Experiences can be tailored to fit a fellow’s individual interests. This includes collaboration with Jefferson for opportunities in medical education, use of resources through the statewide Delaware-CTR ACCEL program (Accelerating Clinical and Translational Research), participation in hospitalwide quality and safety programs through the Nemours Value-Based Services Organization, and advocacy opportunities at both the state and federal levels, including through the Nemours National Office of Policy and Prevention. The fellow will interact with other subspecialty fellows through didactic lectures and research training courses.
Upon completion of the fellowship, fellows will be eligible to sit for the American Board of Pediatrics Pediatric Hospital Medicine board. They will also be competitive for academic faculty positions in children’s hospitals, as well as prepared to thrive in community hospital settings.
Our Fellowship Program
The 2-year program is designed to meet ACGME training requirements in pediatric hospital medicine, while allowing fellows to adapt specific training based on career goals.
