CBIA’s BizCast team sits down with James Shmerling, the president CEO at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center to discuss his 42 year career, navigating through the pandemic, and the role of children’s hospitals in the community.

“We have to understand and appreciate that there is a definite role for children’s hospitals,” Shmerling said.

“But we have a much bigger role in trying to promote their health out in the community, engage with families, and work with social service agencies.”
