Caring for the health needs of a loved one can be challenging, particularly if that person is a child. The Aurora VNA home health nurses offer that extra comfort and specialized pediatric care that helps parents address conditions that can be stressful, physically and emotionally. Aurora VNA nurses manage a variety of pediatric patients and conditions, both acute and chronic. Some examples include but are not limited to:

• cancer
• diabetes
• high-risk infants
• cardiac, asthma
• medically fragile children
• post operative follow-up
• cystic fibrosis
• failure to thrive
• wound care.

The VNA pediatric team provides home assessments, education, treatment, coordination of care and evaluation of caregiver competence. Families receive multiple services, including:

• nursing
• pharmacy
• therapists
• respiratory therapy
• home medical equipment

VNA coordinators are on site at Children’s Hospital to help assess needs and set up services.

Supporting the VNA team of nurses is a network of professionals who champion the needs of the child and family. These include:

• social workers

In addition to the above services, the Aurora VNA provides a variety of specialty programs, including pediatric hospice, to meet the individual needs of our patients and families.
