Other facts
About KidsCare Home Health
KidsCare Home Health is a pediatric home health agency serving children with special needs across the country. We focus on private duty nursing, speech therapy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy as well as provide case management for children ages zero through 18.
KidsCare Home Health has been providing quality pediatric home health care to the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex since 2003, when speech therapist and company owner Cortney Baker started treating children in their homes. Her belief that therapy is most effective when conducted one-on-one, in a familiar environment that includes family members and caregivers led to the creation of a company that has since grown to include hundreds of speech, physical, occupational therapists, and nurses, and patients across branches throughout the U.S.; however, that original commitment to providing quality health care to every child serviced has never changed.
