The Georgia Pediatric Program for Children (GAPP) is a Medicaid-funded initiative designed to support medically fragile children under 21 in Georgia by providing essential in-home healthcare services. GAPP enables families to care for their children with complex medical needs in the comfort of their own homes, rather than requiring extended hospital stays or institutional care.
What is GAPP?
GAPP offers a range of services tailored to children who require continuous medical care, including:
- Skilled Nursing Care: Services such as medication administration, ventilator management, feeding tube care, and vital sign monitoring. These services are critical for children with severe medical conditions needing ongoing supervision.
- Personal Care Support: Assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility to ensure your child’s comfort and well-being.
- Therapy Services: Depending on the child’s needs, GAPP may include physical, occupational, and speech therapy to support their development.
Benefits of GAPP
- Home-Based Care: Keeps children in a familiar, comforting environment while receiving necessary medical attention.
- Family Involvement: Offers training and support to help families manage their child’s care effectively.
- Enhanced Quality of Life: Reduces the need for prolonged hospital stays and helps maintain family routines.
