Responsibilities

Our nurses are responsible for providing competent, compassionate and complete patient care following a physician ordered Plan of Care using assessment skills, and following treatment and medication orders. We work with all disciplines caring for our clients to provide optimal coordinated care. We believe that coordinated care does not end with medical professionals; a core part of care includes working with the parent or caregiver by educating, supporting, interacting with, and learning from the people who know their child best. This continuity of care results in a reduced risk of hospitalization and allows us to provide continued care in the comfort of their home.
