Children in Hospital Ireland
Established in 1970, Children in Hospital Ireland seeks to highlight the rights and welfare of children in hospital, the specific challenges faced by children in hospital and their parents or careers, the right of the child in hospital to play, and the need for a more child centred approach in the provision of healthcare services for children. Children in Hospital Ireland is widely recognised to have played an important role in influencing many positive changes that have occurred in hospital care for children in Ireland over recent decades.
