🏆 We’ve earned the AORN Go Clear™ Award! Shriners Children’s Northern California is now a Center of Excellence in Surgical Safety: Smoke Evacuation— recognized for our leadership in eliminating surgical smoke hazards during laser and electrosurgical procedures.

🚨 Why does this matter? Surgical smoke poses risks to patients and OR teams, but our advanced protocols and technology ensure a safer, smoke-free environment for all.

👏 Thank you to our incredible surgical teams for prioritizing safety, innovation, and excellence in pediatric care!

Big thanks to Molly Riehl and the Good Day Sacramento team for stopping by and featuring our Fracture Clinic! 🦴💙 Breaks and fractures are more common than most people think — we see about 70 kids a week with injuries like these.

We’re grateful to Dr. Leshikar and Dr. Roberto for sharing helpful tips on how to keep kids safe this summer. Be sure to keep a close eye on little ones when they’re on trampolines, near pools or slippery surfaces, and while riding bikes or scooters. 🛴🚲💦
