Finding the right care for a medically fragile child can feel overwhelming. Families in Peachtree Corners and surrounding communities can turn to Integrity Homecare and Nursing for compassionate, dependable in-home support through the Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP).
As a GAPP provider in Peachtree Corners, we help eligible children receive medically necessary care in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. Our team works with families, healthcare professionals, and care coordinators to help make the process easier and connect children with appropriate in-home services.
What is the Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP)?
The Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) is a specialized Medicaid waiver program designed to serve medically fragile children. If your child requires continuous skilled nursing or assistance with daily living activities, GAPP allows them to receive professional, personalized care in the comfort and safety of home rather than a hospital setting.
Pediatric Services Provided Under GAPP:
- In-Home Skilled Nursing (RN & LPN): Tracheostomy care, mechanical ventilator support, enteral feeding (G-tube), seizure management, and continuous medication administration.
- Personal Care Support (PCA): Assistance with bathing, dressing, mobility, hygiene, and daily nutritional needs.
- Katie Beckett Waiver Support: Guidance for families applying for Medicaid eligibility based on the child’s medical needs rather than household income.
How We Help Peachtree Corners Families Apply for GAPP
Getting started with GAPP care involves specific documentation and physician approvals. Our team simplifies the process for you every step of the way:
- Initial Consultation: We review your child’s medical history and current physician orders to confirm baseline eligibility.
- Clinical Assessment: A Registered Nurse completes an in-home clinical evaluation to establish required care hours.
- Application & Approval Submission: We submit the clinical documentation package directly to Georgia Medicaid for prior authorization.
- Caregiver Matching: Once approved, we match your child with compassionate, skilled pediatric nurses and personal care aides trained specifically for their medical profile.
