Supporting better outcomes through family-centred care

Family-centered care is an approach to healthcare that recognises the vital role families play in a child’s healing journey.  By encouraging collaboration between families and healthcare professionals, it helps improve the overall patient experience, strengthens emotional wellbeing, and contributes to better health outcomes for children.
