The health sector is undergoing a constant transformation and a perpetual movement: new technologies are constantly being introduced, new treatments are emerging and citizens’ needs are changing.
As a result, the large hospital complexes are in urgent need of an upgrade, given that many of these institutions have been operating for over a century.

In the light of this finding, Open Arms Hug assists in the renovation of Children’s Hospitals and Pediatric Units, in order to support children patients across the country.

Goals of the renovations:

  • To have hospitals that meet the needs of the child patient.
  • To provide an environment that is upgraded and properly equipped, while at the same time helps the staff to operate more efficiently and improve the services provided to the child patient.
  • To help children patients be children even when their health isn’t being helpful to that.
