Nemours Children’s Health has launched Advanced Care at Home — a pediatric at-home care program designed by a freestanding children’s hospital. The care model combines technology and 24/7 clinical access with personalized, compassionate care, allowing children to heal where they feel most comfortable: at home.
Advanced Care at Home accelerates safe discharge for children while ensuring high-quality care through virtual support at home. Designed for children who are stable but require enhanced medical care, the program is especially valuable for those with complex conditions and other medical diagnoses.
Since inception in June, more than 120 patients have enrolled in Nemours Children’s Advanced Care at Home. The program has returned 177 hospital days to families, prevented 27 inpatient readmissions and avoided 91 emergency department visits — helping children recover safely at home while reducing costs and stress for families.
The program will expand to Nemours Children’s Hospital, Delaware soon, with plans for a pediatric-focused mobile integrated health program in 2026.
