Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesù

Why we've selected Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesù

The Bambino Gesù Children’s Hospital (Italian: Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesù, O.P.B.G.) is a children's hospital located in Rome, Italy. Founded in 1869, it is now part of the network of the National Healthcare System in the city of Rome on extraterritorial area administered by the Holy See. Since 1980, due to its prestige and the strengthening of its relations with the Italian National Health System, it has become a significant point of reference for paediatrics at the national level. The trademark of the hospital in the last thirty years has been the high level of specialisation in the treatment of children coming not only from Rome or Italy, but also from neighbouring European countries. In 1985, it was officially recognised as a research hospital (Istituto di Ricovero e Cura a Carattere Scientifico), thus being included among the most important national comprehensive hospitals and becoming one of the three children’s research hospitals in Italy.
