We understand that the care for clients who experience chronic, complex health needs, extends beyond usual parenting responsibilities.  We recommend that every caregiver make a detailed 24/7 schedule. We know you are providing care during many, or even all, hours of the day and night . Many of these caregiving activities involve sustained attention and physical labor and must be performed multiple times each day. We want to ensure that the clients’ needs are met and the parents’ needs are supported either financially or through respite care.

No. Parents are frontline public health workers. They nurture, support, supervise and teach healthy habits to ensure their child is safe and supported in their community and to help their child get the education and health care they need. In order to do this, you often have to take your child and leave the home.  Structured Family Care can be provided anywhere you are with your child, to exclude hospital admissions.

In addition to caregiving duties, many parents of complex medical children must also stay employed for regular income and also to keep their family’s health insurance. As a result, you may have another job on top of the Structured Family Care you receive.
