Our Story

An independent children’s home health care agency, PHS is here for one reason: taking care of the child. We do this by providing comprehensive pediatric home care services to help kids with medical complexities live as fully as possible – at home, with their families, rather than in the hospital.

Our team has been partnering with health care professionals, payers and family caregivers for over 25 years. From insurance and technical support to hugs when things get overwhelming, PHS offers complete support for families.

PHS cares for kids and families in Minnesota, western Wisconsin, northern Iowa, and eastern North and South Dakota. Since we opened, thousands of kids have outlived expectations and successfully transitioned to adulthood.
