Save A Child - Global Paediatric Network

Brighton, England, United Kingdom • 4 Employees
Hospital & Health Care

Save A Child is registered charity helping to save the lives of children affected by war or disaster and in areas where the healthcare system has been overwhelmed by infectious disease. Armed conflict affects one in 10 children globally and, over the past few decades, heavily populated urban areas and hospitals have become direct targets, often producing large numbers of casualties and damaging local healthcare facilities. Children with acute or chronic medical conditions are often equally at risk as those with traumatic injuries and the high mortality of these patients suggests that untreated medical conditions are in many ways more lethal than the weapons of war. Doctors and field clinicians often lack the specific training required to support children during critical events and lives are lost due to a lack of paediatric expertise. Now, more than ever the world needs solutions that can provide services in resource constrained areas. The Save A Child app can transcend borders, reach remote communities and deliver direct access to a global network of paediatric specialists ready to assist remotely.
