The Hospital has developed a real “Bambino Gesù System” that stretches beyond the regions of Rome and Lazio, establishing itself as a national and international center of excellence. The historical location at Gianicolo, in Rome, has become the hub of a new multi-centred hospital extending beyond regional boundaries to meet the healthcare needs of children from all over southern Italy. Equally important are the international missions in developing countries.
