Program Description

Our pediatric company was started in 1986 and was purchased in 1995 by Home Health Corporation of America. Unlike many other HHA's our orginal staff (Director, scheduler, payroll clerk, coordinators) still work for the company. Since our administrative staff is "one big happy family" we are able to project this to our field staff, families, and referral sources. Referral sources such as AI duPont Hospital for Children, know our staff and feel comfortable with sending their critically ill children to our (family) agency. Having our pediatric home care team together for over ten years takes our pediatric home care program to a higher level.
