We also help handle the required insurance authorization, billing, and follow-up involved when receiving home care services. Our home health programs are designed to achieve a smooth transition for patients who are returning home on continued therapy. We also provide the patient's physician with the information they need to best manage the patient's care. Our Special Pediatric Expertise Family-centered care is at the heart of our pediatric programs. We know that infants and children who are ill require a special set of skills and a higher level of care.
Children often respond best when they receive care in the safety and comfort of their own home.
HTNW is recognized regionally for our special pediatric expertise. Through our affiliation with Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center, we pioneered the clinical methodologies to manage premature babies and children with complex medical needs safely in the home. We care for pediatric patients with a variety of diagnoses and conditions, such as gastrointestinal disorders, cancer, AIDS, renal disease, urinary tract and soft tissue infections, pneumonia, growth deficiencies, congenital defects, developmental delays, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, sleep apnea, and cystic fibrosis. We thoroughly train both patient and caregiver in the administration of the therapy, as well as provide complete family, home, environmental, and equipment needs assessments. We also provide communication with the physician, monitor drug interactions, evaluate the response to the prescribed therapy, and monitor the patient's compliance with their program.
