• Complex medical conditions
• Recent hospitalization
• Any other clinical safety concerns

Not all children are eligible for home vaccinations.

Clinical review and safety

Patient safety is the priority of the Home Visit Program.

A physician will review the child’s medical record, confirm the services or vaccines required, and determine whether the child is suitable for home care. Families may also receive a call from a nurse before the visit to complete additional safety checks.

This may include screening for:

• Fever
• Current illness
• Recent symptoms
• Travel history
• Other clinical concerns

Payment and pricing

The Pediatric Home Visit Program is currently a self-pay private service and is not covered by insurance.

Pricing varies depending on:

• Type of visit
• Number of services required
• Vaccines administered

Families will receive an estimated cost and payment instructions before the appointment is confirmed. Payment must be completed before scheduling.

Appointment availability

Home visits are initially available during regular operational hours: Sunday to Thursday, 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM

Families may request a preferred date or time; however, final scheduling depends on clinical approval, team availability, and geographic logistics.

At this stage, each child requires an individual review, separate documentation, and a separate scheduling workflow.
