Summary

In Colombia, health is a fundamental right and of special protection in childhood, however, for many children and adolescents the difficulties in accessing timely and quality care are increasing every day, due to the budget deficit and little efficiency in the provision of services. The Patronato Foundation is constantly working to ensure that many children and adolescents can enjoy the highest level of care in adequate health services without distinction.

Challenge

Children and adolescents in Colombia face significant healthcare challenges due to barriers like economic constraints, limited education, and a shortage of healthcare professionals. These obstacles prevent timely diagnoses, specialist care, and necessary treatments. The Patronato Foundation works to overcome these barriers and ensure all children receive the care they need.

Solution

The Patronato Foundation provides healthcare services to children and adolescents through partnerships with healthcare institutions. These alliances allow the Foundation to offer a range of services, including medical consultations, diagnostic tests, specialized treatments, surgeries, the provision of medical devices such as hearing aids and wheelchairs, as well as medications and rehabilitation therapies.

Long-Term Impact

The long-term impact of the Patronato Foundation is significant, as it improves the health and well-being of children and adolescents who lack access to essential care. By overcoming barriers such as economic hardship and healthcare shortages, the Foundation ensures timely diagnoses, specialist care, and necessary treatments, leading to better health outcomes and a higher quality of life.
