Pain-free care

The aim of the Princess Máxima Center is for children to have the best possible quality of life and to experience no, or otherwise the least possible, pain and stress. That is why we have a special pain team in place that focuses on the prevention and treatment of pain.

Preventing and treating pain and stress happens at different times:

  • during and after surgery.
  • around short procedures such as a puncture.
  • complex pain caused by the illness or treatment.
  • pain in a phase when getting better is no longer possible.

Pain-free care team

You can come across members of the pain team when your child undergoes surgery or a procedure, but also when your treating physician or nurse asks them to come.
