The objectives are based in Article 8 of the Foundation Constitution Deed and expressly say:
"The Foundation aims to promote the development of specific programs of study and research in the field of Health Sciences, and especially referred to the problem of children having their ends a Scientific-Educational, Health and Social purpose".
As pediatricians the main goal of our work is to ensure that children reach adulthood under the best possible conditions, physical and mental. But there are many issues to solve and many gaps in the current health program for achieving these objectives.
The basic program of the Foundation and target of our work is based on premature intervention for all children who may be born with biological/ social risk factors or suffer some future pathology if not treated early; In addition, all children born with an illness are also candidates for treatment in this area. The program starts with the child, family, and the environment surrounding the child, through multiple coordination meetings. The team consists of psychologists, speech therapists, physiotherapists and medical equipment. Over the years we have developed complementary programs such as Aquatic Therapy, Child Relax, Group Therapies and Diagnostic Program and selection developed at the hospital.
The Foundation still continues its work in order to expand activities to treat children, therefore each year not only expands the productivity of its programs, but also sets a new comprehensive and quality service to their families. An example of this level of treatment in infants is the application of Speech and Orofacial Myofunctional therapies to improve oral-phonatory and nutrition quality. Finally, we are developing programs to treat chronic diseases related to childhood, such as diabetes or obesity.
