History

Pediatrics at University of Rochester Medicine has historically taken place inside of pediatric units within Strong Memorial Hospital, which combined added up to a 124-bed capacity. [8] These units were known as Children's Hospital at Strong before being renamed to "Golisano Children's Hospital" in 2002 after a $14 million donation from Paychex founder, Tom Golisano. [9] [10]

In 2011 plans were made to build a new freestanding children's hospital and Tom Golisano once again donated $20 million to help with the construction of the new project, with his donations totaling $34 million to the hospital. Plans called for new 245,000 SqF, nine-story building with 2 floors empty to use as shell space for future expansion. Construction was set in two parts, with part one opening in 2015.

The project was set at a price of $134 million, the largest project ever for the University of Rochester. [11] Large donations were made to the hospital from large charities including $7 million from the Wegman Family Foundation, [12] $5 million from Georgia Gosnell, [13] [14] and $3 million from Rick Aab in honor of the Ganatra family. [15]

Phase two of construction began in fall 2016 and included pediatric specific operating rooms and a new pediatric intensive care unit. Construction for phase two took place in the 2 floors that were left for later expansion. Phase two was completed by the summer of 2017. [16]

In early 2020 the hospital rolled out a new service for parents of babies that were in the neonatal intensive care unit. The service run by company, AngelEye is able to provide video 24/7 to parents when they can't be in the nicu with their child. [17] Currently there are 20 cameras installed entirely funded by local donations. These cameras are free for parent use. [18] [19]
