Sažetak
Healthcare policies in Croatia describe the needs for development of pediatric palliative care. However, while needs are recognized they have gone unmet and unrealized. To understand why research was set to determine the current level of readiness of Croatian health care system for the further development of pediatric palliative care. Two research questions were set: 1) What is the level of readiness of the Croatian health system for the further development of pediatric palliative care and 2) What strategies would be applicable to move the Croatian health system to a higher level of readiness. To answer the questions the community readiness model was used, according to which the community is at a different measurable level of readiness to deal with a specific problem. Interviews were conducted with key stakeholders (the smallest number according to the model) about the state and perspective of pediatric palliative care. The interviews were processed quantitatively according to the assessment list for determining the level of readiness and qualitatively by thematic analysis. According to the obtained results, the healthcare system of the Republic of Croatia is at the fifth level of readiness, i.e. at the level of Preparation. This presentation will outline the findings of the thematic analysis and discuss possible interventions and strategies to improve palliative care for pediatric patients.
