The Loma Linda University's Children's Hospital in California, United States, has been honored as one of America's Best Maternity Hospitals 2024 by Newsweek in partnership with Statista Inc., recognizing the facility for excelling in providing care to mothers, newborns, and their families. The recognition was based on a nationwide survey of medical professionals, key performance indicators, and patient survey results.

"Here at Children's Hospital, our top priority has always been delivering exceptional care to our community's families," said Peter Baker, senior vice president and administrator of Children's Hospital. “This recognition from Newsweek highlights our commitment to ensuring that each expectant mother and newborn receives top-notch support and expertise every step of the way."
