What will happen if a mother with a small child travels in an airplane/airport and the mother will be hospitalized/unable to take care of the child?
I’m not sure who would take care of the child (1 year old) if a responsible parent will be unable to take care of the child due to health issues? Let’s say the parent will stay for 2 days in the hospital, who would take care of the child to be in a safe place? Or possibly informed husband in the home country to pick up a child, who will meanwhile assure the child is safe and cared?
Is there a special airport service for such cases or travel insurance company providing this?
Thank you.

As well as Zach Lipton's excellent answer, some medical insurances will pay for a caregiver to fly out to look after the patient if they are taken ill. They may also provide for someone to fly out and take care of a dependent. They should provide for the child to be flown home where they can be cared for. Check your insurance, and buy one with this coverage if it is important.
