PPEC services offer a stimulating, social, and nurturing alternative healthcare choice to families and children with medically complex conditions to receive continual medical care. They provide services that meet the physiological, developmental, nutritional, and social needs of your children. These services provide a less restrictive, cost-effective alternative to expensive hospitalization. Furthermore, PPEC services require a physician's prescription or letter of medical necessity.  This enables parents to carry on with their daily activities, confident that their children are getting the essential medical care and attention they need.
