Healthcare delivery for children requires careful navigation of both medical and moral complexities, making pediatric healthcare policies and ethics essential to informed and equitable practice. Policies must prioritize child rights, access to care, vaccination mandates, and protection of vulnerable populations. Ethical dilemmas arise in situations involving consent, end-of-life care, and allocation of limited resources, particularly in critical or experimental interventions. Pediatric healthcare policies and ethics also encompass health equity, inclusion of marginalized groups, and ethical oversight of clinical research. As advancements in genomics and artificial intelligence evolve, the need for transparent, child-centered frameworks becomes more pressing. Effective policy-making ensures decisions are guided by the best interest of the child while respecting cultural, legal, and societal norms.
