Life Care Planning
contact us
Comprehensive life care plans are developed by a pediatrician or clinical child psychologist with extensive experience in caring for children with catastrophic injuries and those with chronic health care needs. As providers of pediatric care who are also experts in long-term outcomes of childhood disabilities, we develop life care plans that fully incorporate the child’s current and future potentials. Life care plans are developed after a comprehensive evaluation including a thorough medical and psychological examination and review of pertinent medical, therapy, school and vocational records.
Life care plans will address the following areas that are pertinent to the individual being assessed:
  • Medical and surgical evaluations and care
  • Therapeutic evaluations and interventions
  • Medications
  • Equipment and supplies
  • Orthotics and prosthetics
  • Wheelchair needs
  • Architectural renovations
  • Transportation needs
  • Case management
  • Attendant care
  • Residential care
  • Counseling
  • Vocational needs

A life care plan is a dynamic document based upon published standards of practice, comprehensive assessment, data analysis, and research, that provides an organized, concise plan for current and future needs, with associated costs, for individuals who have experienced catastrophic injury or have chronic health care needs.
