Subacute Skilled Nursing Acute Rehabilitation Day Health Centers Respite Care

The Heart of the South Bay

Children thrive best at home, but those with complex medical needs sometimes require long-term subacute care that extends beyond what a typical household can provide. For children recovering from catastrophic injuries or living with complex conditions, a specialized environment offering both medical expertise and a nurturing atmosphere is essential.

At our facilities, we go beyond providing timely and appropriate medical attention. We create a warm, home-like setting where children and their families feel supported and valued. Our experienced clinicians deliver world-class care infused with genuine affection. We see the children in our care as part of our extended family, nurturing them as we would our own and celebrating their growth and achievements. This blend of clinical excellence and heartfelt care sets us apart as a provider of pediatric subacute services.

Our holistic approach embraces the healing power of the community. Through vital connections with Stanford’s Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital, their specialists provide on-site ENT and pulmonology clinics, bringing world-class expertise directly to our patients. Local mobility equipment vendors generously share orthotics, wheelchairs, and adaptive devices, revealing personalized tools for independence. Area Regional Center’s provides Early Intervention services, for our young patients to receive developmental support designed to maximize their unique potential. Lastly, our volunteers bring joy through Pet Therapy sessions, Music Therapy, Arts & Crafts, and adaptive recreational activities organized through our activity’s director.
