Bright Path

A serious illness in a family is difficult to handle. When it is your child, you need special support and care through this trying time. Bright Path, a pediatric palliative care program, is specialized medical care for infants, children, adolescents, and young adults who are living with a serious illness.

Our goal is to improve the quality of life of your family, by providing comfort to your child while building your confidence with education and support. Bright Path can help manage symptoms for many pediatric illnesses and chronic conditions, include progressive cancer, neuromuscular disorders, genetic or congenital diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular conditions and pulmonary disorders.
