Medical complexity:The importance of setting families' expectations for the load of home care

Complex care pediatrician Dr. Elaine Lin names how important it is to stress to families that just because you made a referral to home nursing doesn't mean quality home nursing will be available; and that families need to be prepared to care for their child themselves before discharge. "I think it's so critical to, again, make sure families, especially if they are going home the first time really feel comfortable doing everything independently and being able to teach somebody who is also new and getting to know their child."
