Technical and sanitary infrastructure

It is vital to enhance the technical and sanitary infrastructures of partner hospitals to make sure children are being cured in good conditions. It is often necessary to use specialized and last technology equipment to make sure complex surgeries can be successful.  The quality of the material used has a direct impact on the lenght of the surgery, with shorter anaesthesis and a quicker recovery. Chain of Hope contributes to  creating better work conditions for the local teams by bringing specialised equipment that would otherwise not be available.

Next to the Chain of  Hope Belgium investments, equipment is being donated by medical firms, and recycled when possible.
