Gain Support for Your Child’s Daily Needs
At Home Healthcare offers support from caring staff who can assist with activities of daily living under various programs such as Medically Dependent Children’s Program, The Children with Special Health Care Needs Services Program, and The Texas Health Steps Comprehensive Care Program.
