Course objectives
The course introduces Social Pediatrics as an independent branch of study. For a major part of the semester, it focuses on the complex system of Czech child care. The aim of the course is to present problems of a complex child care in families and institutions. It presents the care for the development of healthy children and children threatened by a risky environment (threatened, socially maladapted, ill and handicapped children).
