Akron Children’s Home Care
Akron Children’s Home Care offers complete in-home, medical care for infants, children and teens who need specialized treatment and/or medical supplies and equipment. Our individualized services provide an alternative to a long hospital stay, which can help ease the financial burden and limit disruptions on family life. In some cases, costs can be reduced by up to 80% compared to in-hospital treatment. We work closely with your child’s doctor to ensure continuity of care. Before treatment begins, an Akron Children’s Home Care representative will meet with you to discuss the program, learn about your child’s needs, and answer any questions you may have.
