HOPE

Education in hospitals, until recently, hadn’t been an object of special interest. However, in the last years two important associations were created that have served to give impulse to the subject: the Norway Association for the Physically Handicapped and the Norway Association of Hospital Pedagogues.

Hospital education is regulated by a series of laws and the administrative responsibilities shared by two Ministries: Education and Health.
