On May 2, 2009, the staff of UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh was engaged in a massive operation: transfer more than 150 patients from the old hospital in Oakland to a brand new building in Lawrenceville. Extensive plans had been put together in case something went wrong, but the entire operation went off without a hitch.
"That was one of the most memorable days of the last ten years," said Diane Hupp, chief nursing officer and vice president of the hospital's Operations and Patient Care Services.
