Schedule A Pediatric In-Home Assessment

An in-home assessment is a key part of our personalized approach to pediatric home care, allowing us to tailor our services to meet your child’s unique needs.

During the assessment, we will:

  • Introduce our services and discuss your child’s home care team.
  • Review the services ordered by your child’s physician.
  • Address any questions or concerns you may have.
  • Verify your child’s information.
  • Schedule your child’s first visit and estimate its duration (typically 1 to 4 hours based on their needs).

This assessment establishes your child’s baseline status, providing a reference for future visits. We perform a full physical, psychosocial, and home safety assessment to ensure your child’s environment supports safe and effective care.

An in-home assessment is crucial for tailoring our services to your child’s specific care needs. Our assessment establishes a child’s baseline status, including a physical and psychosocial assessment, and evaluates the home environment for safety, ensuring a secure space for your child’s care.

Is My Child Eligible For Home Care
Any child leaving the hospital or in a doctor’s practice with a complex and/or chronic medical problem, or physical trauma, is a candidate for home care services.

Some examples include:

  • Premature infants: Most premature infants (24–32 weeks) have complications that would qualify them for home care.
  • Respiratory-compromised children: Ventilator dependent, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, traumatic brain injury complications, syndrome- related complications, tracheostomy (either permanent or temporary).
  • Cardiac-compromised children: Children with complications related to a congenital heart defect, syndrome-related complications, congenital anomaly, etc.
  • Neurologically-compromised children: Seizure disorders, cerebral palsy, syndrome-related complications, etc.​
  • Gastrostomy: Children who require feeding either via nasojejunal (NJ) tube or gastrostomy button (G button). 

Home health care staff can evaluate your child in the hospital or at home to help in making the decision for home nursing needs and hours.
