Summary
Nemours Children's Health has launched the first pediatric Advanced Care at Home program in the U.S., aimed at providing personalized medical care to stable children with complex conditions in their homes. The initiative has enrolled over 120 patients since its debut in June, resulting in significant healthcare savings by reducing hospital stays, readmissions, and emergency visits. This model not only enhances patient recovery in familiar surroundings but also aligns with a broader strategy to support children's health within their natural environments. With plans for further expansion, this program showcases the potential to transform pediatric healthcare delivery and improve outcomes for children and their families.
