Pediatric Trauma Care - Αντιμετώπιση Παιδικού Τραύματος

Pediatric Trauma Care” was founded in 1998 in Athens by a small number of doctors and parents. Our purpose is to raise awareness on children's accidents in Greece, to reduce their number and severity and to improve care once an accident has occurred, through the implementation of the following: a) By opening Trauma Centers in all the major Public Children’s Hospitals in Athens and throughout Greece. b) By upgrading and equipping the Paediatric Departments and Clinics of the Hospitals and the Health Centers with the necessary machinery. c) By helping finance seminars where specialized doctors train surgeons, doctors, nurses, and Ambulance Paramedics on how to help the injured children the fastest and best way possible (Medical Seminars Program). d) By educating children on trauma prevention. In particular, we visit schools and talk to children, teachers and parents about how to prevent accidents from happening.
