Pediatric and Perinatal Care
Perinatal Care
New parents carrying a child in-utero who has a life-limiting illness face a difficult journey – but you don’t need to go it alone. Our specially trained Perinatal staff can offer hospice and palliative care and support for the infant and family. This specialized support can begin immediately at diagnosis and continue through birth and at the hospital. Traditional home hospice and palliative care can be provided should the baby be able to go home. Reach out to learn how we can support you, your baby and your family.
