Abstract

Theoretical Principles: Against a backdrop of increasing debate regarding children's voice and position withinhealth care and the struggle to effectively implement Family-Centred Care (FCC) in practice, the concept ofChild-Centred Care (CCC) has emerged.Phenomena Addressed: The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of CCC and its potential theoreticalalignment with an ecological approach to health care.Research Linkages: The paper will draw on practice-based research, highlighting the differences and similarities ofCC against the more established FCC. Arguments will be presented to show that rather than competing with FCC,CCC has the potential to complement or extend traditional FCC, by placing children in a more prominent and centralposition than that which they currently hold within health care.
