Review for A Rosie Place for Children, South Bend, IN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

O'Hana Hertitage's A Rosie Place in South Bend, IN provides family centered inidvidualistic care for medically fragile children in a beautiful 5 bedroom handicap accessible home - this is allowing 2 very important factors to take place: 1.) the child receives impeccable care in the same manner he/she would at home as the caregiver (usually parents) are interviewed in depth as to each aspect of their child's care and then a care plan is devised to make sure the child recieves the exact nursing adn therapy care that he/she would at home (same times, same equipment, etc.)- this makes the child feel so comfortable! 2.) the parent/caregiver who is usually spending 24 hours a day 7 days a week providing care - is given a break so that can refresh with their spouse or other children (or even by themselves. This so very important to their own health! Many winners - the medically fragile child and their family!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I am at the home frequently for meetings and family events. I am a nurse and my co workers deliver care @ O'Hana's A Rosie Place; I hear them talk about the amazing times they see the children (patietns) have and how satisfying it is to them personlly to work in such a clean, well organized, and caring enviornment. The staff go above and beyond with every action they take!

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Find a good source of income or fundraising.
