You're not alone in this

Exhausted from doing this all by yourself?

You love your child more than anything, but the constant care is overwhelming. Monitoring machines, managing meds, never sleeping through the night. You can't take a shower or cook a meal without worrying, because you can't leave them alone for a minute.

Many parents tell us they just want a breather to do simple things. And even when a child qualifies for nursing, finding home nurses you can trust feels almost impossible. So you carry it all, burnt out, anxious, and afraid of missing something. None of that is your fault.

Let us be the second set of hands, so you can be Mom or Dad again.

Frequently asked questions

How much will this cost my family?

Probably nothing. Impetus Health is an approved GAPP provider, so if your child qualifies for Georgia's Medicaid pediatric program, the state covers 100% of our in-home nursing care. We'll help you determine eligibility and handle the paperwork.

What qualifications do your nurses have?

All of our nurses are licensed RNs or LPNs with specialized pediatric training, many with ICU or children's hospital backgrounds. Every nurse is background-checked, CPR certified, and experienced with trachs, ventilators, feeding tubes and other complex needs.

Does my child qualify for GAPP?

GAPP serves Georgia children under 21 with complex medical needs who require skilled nursing at home. Eligibility depends on your child's diagnosis and care needs. Book a free consultation and we'll walk through it with you.
