Do you have a child or loved one under age 21 dealing with a chronic health condition or developmental disability?
Health Care Coordination (formerly Partners in Health) is a statewide, community-based support program for children and young adults with chronic health conditions. The program, funded by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services, is implemented through local agencies.
Who is Eligible?
New Hampshire families with a child (birth to age 21) suffering from a chronic health condition or developmental disability that is expected to last 12 months or longer and:
- Affects the child’s ability to function daily and/or
- Requires frequent and intensive medical care
Does My Child’s Condition Qualify?
Easterseals NH Health Care Coordination assists children and young adults suffering from severe chronic conditions such as organ failure, moderate conditions like diabetes, and mild conditions like asthma. Clients with developmental disabilities may also be eligible.
How We Can Help
Health Care Coordination through Easterseals NH helps families identify their child’s needs. We work directly with families to locate and access resources and support systems. Our care coordinators collaborate with schools, insurance providers, and healthcare professionals to ensure optimal care.
We offer recreational opportunities and encourage social interaction between families facing similar challenges. Additionally, we provide respite for caregivers and financial assistance when necessary. Our program fosters a strong community support network for the families we serve.
Our Goal
Easterseals NH Health Care Coordination aims to empower those we serve to handle chronic illness independently. We provide the experience that strong families need to advocate for themselves and the knowledge required to locate and utilize community resources to build their support system.
