Trusted PPEC Services for Hollywood Families
Serving the Hollywood community with compassionate, expert pediatric extended care
Hollywood, Florida is home to a vibrant, diverse community of families — and for those raising children with complex medical needs, Elite PPEC is here to provide the specialized support they deserve. Conveniently situated at 411 S 21st Ave, our facility is easily accessible from neighborhoods throughout Hollywood, including Downtown Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, Emerald Hills, Liberia, Oakridge, and the Hollywood Beach area.
As a Prescribed Pediatric Extended Care (PPEC) center, we serve as a medical daycare alternative for children who require more clinical oversight than a traditional childcare setting can provide. Many Hollywood families discover PPEC services after their child has been discharged from hospitals like Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital — located just minutes from our facility — and need ongoing medical supervision during the day while parents work or attend to other responsibilities.
Florida's PPEC program was created to give medically fragile children a safe, nurturing environment where they receive continuous skilled nursing care, physician-directed therapy services, and age-appropriate developmental stimulation. At Elite PPEC, we embrace this mission fully, combining medical excellence with the warmth and encouragement every child needs to thrive.
Our Hollywood PPEC center cares for children from birth through their 21st birthday who have diagnoses such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, congenital heart defects, chronic lung disease, seizure disorders, genetic syndromes, traumatic brain injury, technology-dependent conditions (ventilators, tracheostomies, G-tubes), and other complex medical needs. We welcome children across the full spectrum of medical complexity and create individualized care plans to meet each child's unique health and developmental goals.
Being located in Hollywood keeps our team close to the families we serve across Broward County. With family authorization, we coordinate care-plan information with each child's physicians, specialists, payer, and other approved providers through appropriate channels.
