Many Pembroke Pines parents first learn about PPEC when their child is discharged from Memorial Hospital West or Memorial Hospital Pembroke, both part of the Memorial Healthcare System that serves western Broward County. When a child needs continuing skilled nursing and therapy services during the day but no longer requires hospitalization, PPEC provides the ideal bridge — a licensed medical daycare setting where children receive physician-directed care while parents can return to work or manage other family responsibilities.
Elite PPEC welcomes children from birth to age 20 with a wide range of complex medical conditions including cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, spina bifida, chronic lung disease, congenital heart defects, seizure disorders, and technology-dependent needs such as ventilators, tracheostomies, and G-tubes. Our multidisciplinary clinical team creates individualized plans of care that align with each child's medical requirements and developmental goals.
Pembroke Pines is widely recognized as one of South Florida's most family-friendly communities, with excellent schools and abundant parks.
