Study goal. To see how the parents found out about "child-friendly hospitals", what are their personal experiences, and examine the views on what measures should be taken to make "child-friendly hospitals" even more effective and more appropriate. Study design. A cross-sectional study. Methods and participants. Respondents were parents who were present at the Pediatric Clinic of the Osijek Clinical Hospital Center, a total of 50 respondents. The questionnaire consists of demographic questions, 3 open-type questions and 4 closed-type questions. The questionnaire contains 17 statements where the respondent circles numbers on the Likert scale. Results. The survey was conducted during July and August 2017. Most of the respondents were female (72%). The average age of respondents was 33.2 years. The majority of respondents rated the nurses’ care of children as ‘excellent’ (72%), as well as the care provided to children by doctors (78%). Respondents wanted a possibility of overnight stays with the child for both parents, a possibility for breastfeeding mothers to sleep in the same room with the child, more information, and the availability of nurses and doctors throughout the day. Conclusion. Most of the parents are satisfied with the health care provided to their child. There is no significant difference between the ratings and opinions on the care provided to children according to age, gender and degree of education. Respondents wanted a possibility of overnight stays with the child for both parents, a possibility for breastfeeding mothers to sleep in the same room with the child, more information, and the availability of nurses and doctors throughout the day.
