Pilot Countries

Hospitals in four countries are assisting in the development of the CFHI, either by acting as pilot sites for the Initiative as a whole, or by trialling specific assessment 'tools' and providing guidance.

As the Initiative is developing to be globally relevant and of benefit to children, parents and health workers anywhere, pilot sites have been chosen in countries with very different cultures, economies, social structures, health systems and difficulties.

The pilot sites for this first phase of the CFHI are:

Kosova
Gjilan Hospital

Pakistan
Children's Hospital (Pakistan Institute for Medical Sciences), Islamabad

Uganda
Mulago Hospital Complex, Kampala

United Kingdom
Barnsley, District General Hospital
Bridgend, Princess of Wales Hospital
Derby, Derbyshire Children's Hospital
Ulster, Community and Hospital Trust
Royal Hospital for Sick Children, York Hill, Glasgow
