A heartwarming story from the Pittsburgh, PA Maxim Healthcare office: one patient's family shares what it's like to travel with a nurse. 💙
Rebecca's son, Hudson, requires complex medical care.
For Rebecca's family, traveling with a private duty nurse isn't a luxury—it's a lifeline. It allows them to care for Hudson at home, keep their family routine, and continue living life fully. From supporting Hudson's care to helping her daughter compete in tennis across the country, Maxim's team makes it all possible. "We wouldn't be able to travel without a nurse. It gives us a sense of normalcy. Allows us to be a family."
Rebecca's top travel tips for families with medically fragile kids:
☑️ Use a color-coded travel bag for medical supplies
☑️ Know both agency and airline rules ahead of time
☑️ Keep all medications/liquids accessible for TSA
☑️ Stick to your child's normal routine as much as possible
☑️ Bring nurses you and your child feel comfortable with
Thanks for everything you do, Maxim nurses!
