Justice in Pediatric Care

Justice in pediatric care means ensuring all children have fair access to health services regardless of their background, socioeconomic status, or where they live. It emphasizes that every child deserves equal consideration and quality treatment. This approach aims to eliminate disparities, prioritize vulnerable populations, and promote health equity so that every child has the opportunity to grow and develop healthily. In practice, justice guides healthcare providers to distribute resources fairly and advocate for policies that reduce barriers to care for underserved children.
