Social Integration

Building Friendships and Fostering a Sense of Belonging.

The Enriching Power of Social Integration

Feeling connected is a vital part of a happy childhood. Our program at Advanced Pediatric Care Center creates a welcoming community where little fighters with complex care needs can develop meaningful relationships. We build a warm, inclusive atmosphere where every child is encouraged to interact, share, and learn from their peers in a supportive setting.

Fostering Friendships Across All Ages (0-21)

Friendship and belonging enhance a child’s confidence and happiness. At our pediatric medical daycare in Tamarac, we provide structured and spontaneous opportunities for positive peer interaction skills to develop naturally across our entire age range. Our goal is to create a vibrant social environment where every child feels like they are part of a team.

Our Social Integration Program Focuses On:

  • We promote turn-taking and cooperative play through structured pediatric group therapy activities that make learning social rules fun.
  • Our program helps children understand and respond to social cues, building the foundation for more successful interactions.
  • We foster the development of crucial social skills for special needs children, helping them build confidence and create lasting friendships.

 

A Partnership in Your Child’s Care:

  • A respectful and kind environment is key to our success, and our dedicated staff, including skilled nurses maintaining a 1:6 ratio, are trained to facilitate positive social experiences.
  • We believe in a strong partnership with families to reinforce social learning, ensuring consistency between our center and home.

 

Accessible and Supportive Services:

  • Our center provides these enriching social opportunities for families across Tamarac, North Lauderdale, Oakland Park, and beyond.
  • These social integration services are an integral part of our PPEC program, which is fully covered for eligible children through Medicaid.
