The Nordic Barnahus model examined in new book The Barnahus model is designed to give support to children who have experienced violence and abuse, and make sure that they are not retraumatized during the legal process. Now, 25 years after it was pioneered in Iceland, the Barnahus model is examined in a new international book to further the model. First implemented in the Nordic countries and now spreading across Europe, the core mission of the Barnahus model is to offer children who are victims or witnesses of crime the support, protection, rehabilitation, and access to justice they need, in a child-friendly environment.

Den målsättningen slogs fast av riksdagen för 25 år sedan och sedan år 2006 följer Svenska palliativregistret hur vi lever upp till den målsättningen och hur vården i livets slutskede ser ut ur vårdpersonalens och de närståendes perspektiv.
