As she showed me the quilt I looked on the back and there was a quilt for Kids label. This is not my understanding of the use of these quilts. Has something changed so that every hospitalized kid gets a quilt?

I'm surprised you would even ask this question. If a child is in the hospital for whatever reason, they should get a quilt, that's what they are there for, THE CHILDREN! Last year I made 100 quilts for Quilts For Kids and will continue to do so.
