Pediatric Personal Care
VitalCare provides pediatric personal care services to patients 20 years old and younger.
Personal care is non-medical assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). Pediatric personal care services can take different forms; such as completing a task, supervising a child to ensure a task is performed safely, showing a child how to complete a task, or reminding or cueing a child to complete a task.
Through the The Pediatric Personal Care Benefit, we are focused on 17 personal care tasks:
Bathing / Showering | Shaving |
Dressing | Skin Care |
Feeding | Bowel Care |
Medication Reminders | Bowel Program |
Ambulation / Locomotion | Catheter Care |
Meal Preparation | Bladder Care |
Hair Care / Grooming | Positioning |
Mouth Care / Oral Care | Transfer |
Nail Care |
Your Personal Care Worker (PCW) is carefully selected with your child’s needs and your family in mind. We make it a priority to match your child with a PCW who is trained to provide the care your child needs, and someone who will fit with your family.
