How it WorksGet Started in Just Three Simple Steps!

Getting care for your medically fragile child through PHHA is simple and designed to support your family every step of the way. From eligibility to training and ongoing care, our team ensures a smooth and guided experience.

1

Contact PHHA to Get Started

Reach out to PHHA to see if your child qualifies for the FHHA program. Our team will guide you through the process, help gather the necessary medical documentation, and ensure you understand the requirements before moving forward.

2

Get Certified as an FHHA

If you or another family member would like to become the caregiver, PHHA will provide the necessary training to become a Family Home Health Aide (FHHA). At the same time, our team will assist with the Medicaid process so you can focus on your child’s well-being.

3

Provide Care & Get Paid

Once approved, you can begin caring for your medically fragile child at home with support from the PHHA skilled nursing team. Through the program, Medicaid may compensate you for providing essential, hands-on care while ensuring your child receives the attention they need.
