To ensure that the needs of an ill and disabled children are met, four groups of children and young people have been identified as needing services:
- children with acute and short-term conditions
- children with long-term conditions
- children with disabilities and complex conditions, including those requiring continuing care and neonates; and
- children with life-limiting and life-threatening illness, including those requiring palliative and end-of-life care
