ChildKind is a global initiative aimed at reducing pain and unnecessary suffering in children by offering a special designation to those facilities that have demonstrated an institutional commitment to pain relief and by providing the technical support to achieve that goal. The ChildKind initiative was conceived by the Special Interest Group on Pain in Childhood of the International Association for the Study of Pain to reduce pain in children by formally recognizing healthcare facilities that have made an institutional commitment to providing pain relief. If a hospital can provide evidence that it has made such a commitment and has in place policies, protocols, quality audits, and ongoing educational activities that address pain, it can apply for designation as “A ChildKind Hospital”. This designation, endorsed by ten international organizations, is testimony to the fact that the hospital has made the comfort of those for whom it provides care, a foundational value. In addition to formally recognizing institutions, ChildKind maintains a website that offers evidence-informed policies, protocols, and educational materials so that lack of access to up-to-date information will not preclude the provision of appropriate pain relief. ChildKind now welcomes inquiries from institutions desiring this valuable recognition.
