Please help as I have absolutely no idea with this one and no idea where to find it sorry

I hope you can help thanks in advance

I need to do a summary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Article 24

this is the question asked of me
A summary of The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Article 24.

This is the answer I wrote. Can someone tell me if this is a summary of the above question or do I need to add more.

To me the article states that all children shall be respected, happy, have a right to see a doctor when sick, to provide medical and health care, stop disease and malnutrition, provide adequate nutritious foods and clean drinking-water, to provide care for the mother with ante-natal and post-natal care. The children also have the right to have an education

Yes, you can also include:

Article 24 (Health and health services): Children have the right to good quality health care – the best
health care possible – to safe drinking water, nutritious food, a clean and safe environment, and
information to help them stay healthy. Rich countries should help poorer countries achieve this.
