Journal of Child Health Care (JCHC)

The Journal of Child Health Care is a long‑standing, quarterly peer‑reviewed academic journal established in 1997, devoted to advancing knowledge and practice in child and family health care. It publishes original research, reviews, and theoretical work from a broad range of disciplines—including nursing, medicine, psychology, social science and allied health—that relate to the health, illness, disability and well‑being of children, young people, and their families across diverse settings. The journal emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to key issues in child health, such as chronic and acute illness management, mental health and behavioural problems, health promotion, quality of life outcomes, and health care service delivery and policy. Its readership includes clinicians, researchers, educators, and policy‑makers interested in evidence‑based strategies to improve pediatric health outcomes and health care practices globally. With a strong focus on both empirical and conceptual contributions, the journal fosters dialogue between theory and practice and encourages research that has practical implications for improving care delivery and family‑centred services. By bridging clinical science with real‑world application, Journal of Child Health Care plays a pivotal role in shaping contemporary pediatric health care research, practice, and policy.
