"The Guidelines on child friendly health care were adopted by the Committee of Ministers in 2011. They are designed to provide a framework to ensure that health care systems operate in line with good practices in children's health care, in line with commitments under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the European Social Charter as well as other relevant international and European standards. They thus offer Council of Europe member states a set of practical directions to assist them in improving their healthcare systems and services while implementing a child friendly health care approach. This publication contains the Guidelines and their Explanatory memorandum, the latter including a summary of views on the health care experiences of children and young people in 22 Council of Europe member states, which informed the preparation of these guidelines"--Back cover.
