GMCH offers five types of service: Transitional Care for children who have usually been in an acute care hospital setting and still need medical care, but not of an acute nature, before they transition to being cared for at home;? End-of-Life Care, where a patient¡¯s family can stay in its own family suite and surround their child with the love and the support; Respite Care, where patients receive high quality medical care and appropriate activities while offering parents and families a short break from the nonstop care at home; Perinatal Care provides expertise, resources, support and information for at-risk preterm births about prognosis and prospective complications, establishing continuity of care for infants and parents; and Bereavement Care to provide ongoing support of families following the death of their child.
