Lublin Hospice for Children named after The Little Prince has been operating since 1997. It was established to provide home care for children and adolescents with cancer and other incurable and progressive diseases.
The care provided by the Hospice allows the child to stay in their own home while maintaining high standards of medical, psychological, pedagogical, social and spiritual care. The care is provided to the families free of charge. The hospice finances comprehensive medical assistance, purchases of medicines and a specialist medical equipment for children.
In addition, children and their families benefit from free dental services, rehabilitation treatments, a neurological clinic and help provided by the Mental Health Clinic at the Little Prince’s House in Lublin.
As part of hospice perinatal care,
we help families affected by
severe illnesses of children.
So far, we have had a dozen or so children,
whose parents let their children be born.
We provide full care for children
suffering from incurable diseases,
who cannot be cared for and treated
at home temporarily or permanently.
Hospice care enables
the child to stay in its own
home while maintaining high
standards of medical, psychological,
pedagogical, social and spiritual care.
