PROJECT PROPOSAL

“ A SOCIAL-MEDICAL MODULE OF CARE AND TREATMENT FOR CHILDREN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 0 AND 15 WHO SUFFER WITH SEVERE DISABILITIES”


The process of reform that Romania is passing through showed the social needs that the old institutions cannot resolve. This is why we feel the necessity of developing new services to care for these needs. The process of the restructuring of the orphanages and health system leaves outside the protection system a category of children that suffer with severe disabilities.
(Neurological, severe malformation etc.) They need special care which families cannot provide also social assistance and counselling, personal hygiene, assisted feeding, special medical needs and social reintegration.

On analysing the situation over the last few years in Alba County, there are 4 to 10 children each year who are severely disabled. Our Institution intends to create a Social - Medical Module to care for this category of disabled children.

THE PURPOSE:

To increase the quality of life of the children.
To increase the possibility of complex intervention for saving them, and if possible, the reintegration into society.

THE BENEFICIARIES:

At present, in our institution, there are 5 children in this situation.

Alexandra S. aged 6
Cosmin P. aged 6
Adrian R. aged 1
Flavius C. aged 1
Ioan T. aged 1
