Pediatric Home Health Care
At Family First Healthcare Services, we believe every child deserves compassionate, professional care in the comfort and familiarity of home. Our Pediatric Home Health Care program brings skilled nursing, therapy, and personalized support directly to infants, children, and teens — giving families the peace of mind that medical care and daily living support can be provided where it matters most.
What Is Pediatric Home Health Care?
Who Can Benefit
Our Pediatric Home Health Care services are suited for children from infancy through adolescence who:
- Are managing chronic or complex medical conditions (respiratory illness, diabetes, cardiac or neuro-conditions, etc.)
- Require post-hospital discharge care, surgery recovery, or ongoing skilled nursing support
- Live with disabilities or developmental delays that require therapeutic support (physical, occupational, or speech therapy)
- Need assistance with daily living tasks — such as feeding, medication administration, wound care, mobility assistance, or medical equipment maintenance — that are best managed in a home setting
Providing Pediatric Home Health Care in Tampa, Bradenton, Brandon, Riverview, Lakeland, Winter Haven, Haines City, Lakewood Ranch, Palmetto, Town 'n' Country, and surrounding areas.
Our Agency was founded by people who are dedicated and fully committed to the health and well-being of our clients and patients.
We are dedicated to remaining much more than just a Home Care agency. We navigate and set the pace for that which comes next for seniors and adults with disabilities who stand in need of care.
How It Works at Family First Healthcare Services
- Referral or Assessment
Care typically begins with a referral from your child’s physician — often during discharge planning, after outpatient treatment, or based on ongoing care needs. - Individualized Care Plan
Our pediatric care team conducts a thorough assessment of your child’s medical, developmental, and home environment needs. We then develop a personalized plan in collaboration with your child’s doctor, therapists, and family. - In-Home Care Delivery
Skilled nurses, therapists, and aides visit your home on a schedule tailored to your child’s needs — whether that means daily nursing, regular therapy sessions, or periodic check-ins. - Family Involvement and Training
We believe caregivers are essential partners. We provide education, guidance, and training so families feel equipped to support their child’s care safely and confidently. - Ongoing Support and Coordination
Care plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted as needed. We coordinate with other healthcare providers, therapists, and specialists to ensure continuity of care and support your child’s long-term health and development.

Why Pediatric Home Care Matters
Bringing care into the home offers benefits beyond medical treatment. It allows children to heal, grow, and thrive in a familiar, stable environment while staying close to family. For many families, it means fewer hospital readmissions, less disruption to daily life, and lower risk of hospital-associated infections.
Home-based care also helps relieve the logistical and emotional burden on families — eliminating frequent hospital or clinic trips and giving parents or caregivers more time and support.
Our Mission has always been to improve the quality of life for those that we serve and we strive to deliver upon this with EVERY patient/client experience.
At Family First Healthcare Services, we’ve built a team of committed and dedicated professionals who are truly passionate about delivering the highest level of care to every client and patient they encounter.
