Caring for a child with medical or behavioral needs at home can be tough—but the right nurse can make things easier, safer, and more comforting for your whole family.
Here’s what to keep in mind when choosing a home nurse:
1. Know What Your Child Needs
Does your child need help with tube feeding, seizures, mobility, or behavior support? Knowing exactly what kind of care they need helps you find a nurse with the right experience
2. Look for Experience—and Heart
A great nurse isn’t just skilled—they’re kind, patient, and understanding. Look for someone with:
- Pediatric or special needs experience
- Emergency training
- A gentle, calm presence with children
3. Ask the Right Questions
Before hiring, ask:
- Have you worked with children like mine?
- How do you handle emergencies?
- Are you trained in behavior support?
- How will you communicate with us?
4. Why Home Care Makes a Difference
Having care at home means:
- Your child stays in a familiar, loving space
- Fewer hospital trips
- More family time and less stress
