The Department of Children’s Health aims at improving children and adolescents’ health and accordingly the quality of their life. It is also intended for families, parents and guardians looking after the children on a daily basis. A multidisciplinary team of our highly skilled and educated employees provides children and adolescents until the age 18 with multi-profile comprehensive healthcare.
Our youngest patients are offered specialist care within the scope of pediatric surgery, laryngology, urology and many other medical specialties. Close cooperation between doctors and diagnosticians using modern diagnostic techniques (ultrasonography, tomography, magnetic resonance) provides the best medical care for our little patients and their families.
The medical profile of the Department of Children’s Health is in line with the strategy of the World Health Organization and the European Union policy and includes the following directions:
- Diseases developed as a result of unfavorable environmental conditions and lifestyle;
- Infections;
- Congenital defects.
The Department of Children’s Health provides children with comprehensive healthcare from diagnostics through surgical treatment to rehabilitation. It deals with common children’s diseases and ailments as well as complicated cases within the scope of general pediatrics, surgery, laryngology, urology, gastroenterology, endocrinology (including obesity), pulmonology and allergy.
The Medicover Hospital puts a lot of emphasis on providing children with the feeling of safety and comfort. Therefore, sick children’s parents or guardians can actively participate in medical care and have a possibility of staying in the hospital with their children. Such measures are aimed at reducing the stress of the youngest patients and providing them with convenient conditions for quick recovery. Out of concern for the sick children, parents or guardians of the children aged 0 to 3 years receive an extra identification bracelet with an electronic record of child’s data.
Each patient of the Department of Children’s Health is taken care of by a dedicated nurse closely cooperating with the attending doctor.
