Our services
Our Advocate Health at Home specialists work with you, your child and your child's physician to provide the type of care that is needed. Some neonatal/pediatric care that Advocate Health at Home provides includes:
Another artificial feeding method is enteral nutrition, which routes liquid nutrition through your child’s digestive system. For enteral nutrition, a tube may be inserted through a tube through the nose (nasogastric tube) or through an opening that goes into the stomach or intestines.
Nutrition therapy that began in the hospital can continue at home. Your child’s nurse will coordinate with our dietician and your child’s physician to make sure your child is receiving the proper nutrition. Training on how to administer your child’s nutrition therapy will occur before you leave the hospital and be reinforced once your child returns home, so you are comfortable with providing your child’s care. Regular deliveries of nutrition and supplies will arrive at your home so you always have what you need. Our nursing care is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in case you have questions or issues arise.
