We know that the best health outcomes for children happen when you and your child work together with clinicians and healthcare professionals to share knowledge, trust and mutual respect.

To guide patients, clients and families in how to be involved in the healthcare journey, we presented your healthcare rights and information on informed consent and shared decisions to help you feel confident that your voice is being heard.
