How should we conceptualise suffering in children's healthcare?
Suffering is an important concept in medical practice, but it can be hard to be certain just what suffering is. This is amplified in paediatric practice when it can be hard to know when a child is suffering, especially if that child is a newborn, is pre-verbal or has severe developmental delay. In this episode we explore a new account of suffering that helps clinicians towards a consistent approach to the sick child and their family.
