The VNA cares for families with young children by providing medical assessment and care to acutely and chronically ill children. Services include skilled nursing care, and physical, occupational and speech therapy for children birth to 18 years of age.

Pediatric Supportive Care

Children who have been diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses need special attention so that they may continue to enjoy the pleasures of everyday living.  Families need support to find the best way to care for their child.  The VNA provides supportive care services to coordinate care and support for children and their families between clinics, hospitals, school and home.
