In relation to the nature of the hospital, it is easy to understand that knowlcdgc and skill in many specialities of paediatrics and paediatric nursing arc required. The continuous, rapid development of treatments makes it also necessary to secure that medical and nursing personnel are up to date. The role of a teaching hospital gives additional responsibilities for the personnel.
