Municipal Non-Profit Enterprise "Kherson Regional Children's Clinical Hospital" of the Kherson Regional Council is a leading pediatric medical institution in the region.
The history of the Kherson Regional Children's Clinical Hospital began in 1964, when the city children's hospital was reorganized into a regional facility with 150 beds. In 1975, the construction of a new hospital complex began on Ukrainska Street. By 1978, the new facility was commissioned, opening specialized pediatric somatic and surgical departments and expanding its capacity to 450 beds. In 1992, a new neonatal care building was opened, housing a special care unit, a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and a medical and social rehabilitation center for infants with neurological disorders.
Today, the hospital is a modern multidisciplinary healthcare facility providing specialized and highly specialized inpatient, emergency, palliative, rehabilitation, and outpatient medical care.
Key Leadership Milestones:
- From May 1981 to June 2015, the hospital was led by Liudmyla Liatetska, Hero of Ukraine and Honored Doctor of Ukraine.
- Since July 2015, the institution has been headed by Inna Kholodnyak.
Currently, the hospital is certified for 540 beds and offers inpatient care across 25 medical specialties. Annually, surgical teams perform up to 4,000 surgeries, including complex reconstructive, restorative, and plastic procedures for congenital anomalies in newborns within their first hours of life, as well as neurosurgical procedures on the brain and spinal cord.
In July 2018, the hospital successfully passed an audit confirming that its medical services comply with the international ISO 9001:2015 quality standard.
Work During the War: During the Russian occupation of Kherson Oblast in 2022, the hospital continued providing a full range of medical care to children. We are deeply grateful to all our specialists who remained at their posts despite constant threats. Following the liberation of the region, despite ongoing enemy shelling, our medical staff continues their dedicated work, including mobile outreach visits to remote communities to provide specialized consultations.
