Pediatric Health
The Pediatric Health Service at Natick Walpole VNA is a comprehensive nursing program offering care to patients aged 0 – 18. Our family-focused pediatric home care ensures that children and families are supported during a child’s illness or injury.
Within the patient’s home we are able to provide the much needed medical support and reduce the need for doctor’s office visits and hospital admissions. Specialized nurses trained in pediatric care offer compassion and assistance in navigating the child heath and recovery process. Tailored care plans are created with the assistance of nurses, social workers, accredited home care aids and other specialists to ensure the best possible assistance.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Walpole Area Visiting Nurse Association for the exceptional care they provided to my husband after recent hip replacement surgery. Our physical therapist was clearly very intelligent and knowledgeable about what type of physcial therapy was needed to maximize my husband’s recovery. She challenged him and gave him confidence! Now he belongs to a gym and is making remarkable strides 12 weeks out! We can’t thank the VNA enough.
