A message from our parents...
In all neighborhoods, we have dreams for our children. For some of us our lives changed, when a newborn arrived too early, a toddler suffered brain damage after nearly drowning, or when our teenager became paralyzed in a car accident. We are the parents of medically fragile children. We invite you to support O'Hana. |
Family Registration Form A Rosie Place is here to give parents of medically fragile children brief periods of relief (from a few hours up to several days) from the constant demands of twenty-four hour care. A medically fragile child is a child whose daily care requires special training by their caregiver (above and beyond typical parenting). Medically fragile children require the use of therapies and/or specialized high tech medical equipment (such as G-Tubes, ventilators, apnea monitors, suction machines) to sustain or enhance their lives. Conditions that may constitute medically fragile include (but are not limited to): premature birth, brain injury, uncontrolled seizure disorder, cancer, spina bifida, complications from surgeries, chronic lung or heart disease, swallowing disorders or specialized feeding issues, neuromuscular disease, or other chronic health conditions such as diabetes and asthma that require specialized care that cannot be provided by an untrained care giver. If you believe that your child may qualify for services at A Rosie Place, please complete the registration form below and return it to: If you are unsure if your child(ren) qualify just call A Rosie Place |
