CHILD HEALTH SERVICE

Welcome to the Child Health Service in Christchurch.

This website is a brief guide to what you can expect when you come to our facilities.

Our service provides specialist care both for the children of Canterbury as well as some children from Stewart Island, to the Wairarapa in the North Island.

We have services based on two campuses: Christchurch Hospital Campus and Burwood Hospital Campus.

Our philosophy of care is centred around The Rights of Every Child.

Our service aspires to promote and protect the rights of children and young people. If you want more details about the rights of children and young people in healthcare please read the Charter on the Rights of Tamariki Children & Rangatahi Young People in Healthcare Services in Aotearoa
