Home Healthcare

Your patient doesn’t always need to be hospitalized to receive expert care. Through Children’s Home Healthcare, our team delivers hospital-quality services directly to the home, providing the same level of care typically found in a medical setting.

About Us

With Children’s Home Healthcare, your patient can continue to receive care from nurses, physical or respiratory therapists, and other pediatric providers in the comfort of their home. If home care services are prescribed, we will coordinate seamless care, ensuring your patient receives the necessary services, including medical equipment setup and medication management. Our team will also provide training and resources to empower families in caring for their child at home.

We recognize that families play a crucial role in home care. Our team will work closely with you and your patient’s family to ensure they understand the child’s condition and treatment plan. We’ll educate families on the proper use of medical devices, medication administration, symptom recognition, and steps to take if issues arise. Our team is always available to address any questions or concerns during your patient’s treatment and recovery process.

Meet Our Providers

Your child’s care team may include a variety of providers tailored to individual and changing care needs. Our Home Healthcare providers include:

They’ll keep you informed about your child’s care while also providing services such as getting samples for lab work, managing medication delivery, (including central or IV lines), overseeing phototherapy or other treatments and addressing any other healthcare needs your child may have.

    For complex care and ongoing care needs, your child’s care team may arrange for nurses to come to your home for a specific nursing shift. These typically range from 4 to 12 hours.
