The European Association for Children in Hospital, or EACH for short, is a European umbrella organization that campaigns for the well-being of sick children in hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
10 rights for children and caregivers have been defined to meet their needs before, during and after stays in healthcare facilities. Many aspects of the Convention on the Rights of the Child can be found in the 10 articles. The aim is to create the best possible conditions for all children to achieve the highest attainable standard of health.
Further information on the rights of children and adolescents in hospital can be found on the website of the Health Portal:
