HOPE

In Turkey child education in hospitals had commenced to be a topic of discussion in 1975. Although education of these children hadn’t yet reached a satisfactory level, each year new progress was achieved.

The principal objective was to reduce the fear, the stress and difficulties of interaction that a hospitalized child can have with health personnel.
