Italy
In Italy they had also started some programs for the “humanization” of childrens’ stays in hospitals.
In the Bambino Gesú Hospital and after ten years of experience in this field, a profound evaluation is being conducted of the actual status of teachers who work there.
The objective is to establish a specific training, as well as obtain an adequate juridic position.
