The law of 4 March 2002 on the rights of patients and on the quality of the health system (published in the Journal Officiel of 5 March 2002) defines the individual rights of the patient and the collective rights of users and associations. Respect for these rights is an obligation for the IHFB. Their principles count among its values.

    The hospital patient’s charter

A charter for hospitalised children also exists. The paediatrics and neonatal service of the IHFB is committed to ensuring that its activities conform as closely as possible to the remit of this charter.
