New Patients
Find out what to expect on your
first visit to VPF
Our primary referrals come from New Jersey but we do accept referrals from other states and other countries as well. Once a referral has been made, an
on-site evaluation of the patient will be completed at the child´s home or referring hospital to determine the skilled nursing needs. We encourage the family to tour and meet with us to go over questions or concerns they may have about placement and meet with our team.

Our Team
Meet the staff of VPF
Our years of experience committed to serving children with special medical needs has equipped us with the unique understanding that children in long-term care settings have distinctive care needs. VPF addresses issues such as growth, development, educational, pulmonary management which can be complicated by the child's medical fragility.

Volunteer
Volunteers complement the care of the professional staff.
Volunteers provide services through a variety of programs spending quality time with the residents on a one on one basis or in a group setting. Whether it is reading a story to a child, doing an art project with a teenager or rocking a small infant to sleep, volunteers brighten our children´s days. Volunteers may also provide needed assistance by performing clerical duties as well.
