Easing the experience
From day one , we assign patients a dedicated nurse coordinator to guide them through their entire experience , from transportation , financial assistance and lodging to scheduling prenatal and postnatal appointments . Our goal is to make it as easy , efficient and comfortable as possible , while providing the best possible care . We connect patients with a member of our clinical social work team , who can help bridge families to resources like our Family Aid Program , designed to ease the financial burden of travel and overnight accommodations .
