Our Commitment to Health
CHKD Health System is committed to the health and well-being of our patients, our families, our visitors, and our staff. As a healthcare leader, we must lead by example in maintaining a healthy, safe environment for all.
Nicotine Policy
Nicotine use is a proven health and safety hazard and is inconsistent with our healthcare mission. Because the use of nicotine products and exposure to second-hand smoke has serious adverse effects, all CHKDHS locations are tobacco-free, inside and out.
Background Checks
All offers of employment are contingent upon the successful completion of a criminal background check, drug screening, and employment background review.
