First Pediatric Hospice in South America
Story
We will build the first pediatric hospice where cancer and non-cancer children can live with their families in their final stage of life. With the technical advice of the EKR Chile Foundation, we will create a building of approximately 800 m2, where we will receive 9 children with their families so that a space for children entering palliative care. We need to equip each building space according to the medical conditions indicated by the doctors.
Impact
Having a well-equipped home improves the quality of life of sick children. Likewise, the well-being of their primary caregivers causes an impact on the long-term social good, improving their quality of life by supporting them in physical, emotional, social and financial terms.
Challenge
After 18 years, we have seen the need to create a space for children who enter palliative care, not all have the conditions to receive this type of care in their homes. 25 percent of sick children fail to survive. However, they deserve a good life until the last of their days; accompanied by their family and surrounded by love.
