Sinopsis

The provision of health care services for children is central to improving the nation’s health and remains a key feature of every government’s policy. This concept has been recognised in the United Kingdom since nineteenth century visionaries prompted increasing interest in the welfare of the country’s school children. Successive generations have built upon these foundations and have been diligent in promoting effective service development. It is right that we follow their example, for the young have only one chance of a healthy upbringing. They are totally dependent on others to provide the right services, which are sensitive enough to address individual needs, yet sufficiently comprehensive to enable as many children as possible to reach adulthood with their potential uncom­ promised by illness. Our objective must be to enable today’s children to enjoy a healthy childhood and to equip them to maximise the benefits of a healthy lifestyle in the years to come. We are making an essential investment in the future and must appreciate the challenges which come with that commitment. We need a multi-professional approach, positive management skills and the adoption of good management practice. I therefore welcome this book on managing child health services and commend the initiative of its editors in bringing together such an impressive team of contributors from different disciplines.

Reseña del editor

The medical needs of children are complex, but the most important is prevention of avoidable illness. Aimed at those who work with children, this volume seeks to help professionals work harmoniously and effectively together using the simple techniques of good management. The book argues that there is nothing new about the techniques described, rather it is the failure to apply them that leads to sub-optimal services. It emphasizes good management practise within the resources available. This book should be of interest to child health administrators, clinical directors, consultant paediatricians (community and hospital) and managers of other professions dealing with child health.
