The Children's Hospital, Lahore
History
In 1984, the idea of building a child healthcare institute was presented at the annual meeting of the Pakistan Paediatric Association. Although the construction of the hospital began in 1990, the outpatient department wasn't opened until May 1995. The emergency services began in October 1996, and inpatient services in December 1998.
The Children's Hospital and Institute of Child Health provides postgraduate training to a very large number of doctors in different disciplines, as well as conducting research projects. The institute also encompasses the School of Nursing and School of Allied Health Sciences.
Professor Saeed-ul-Haque was the first project director of this hospital, who initially conceived this idea and presented it to Former President of Pakistan General Zia-Ul-Haq and the Pakistan Paediatric Association in 1984.
