If you have a child with special health care needs and you don’t know where to begin, check out the new online resource database launched by The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH).
In Maryland, over one third of families of these children report that they cannot easily access needed community-based services and half of the same families report that they need help finding services for their youngsters. For families in rural areas of the state, it can be even more difficult to find specialty services.
“This database provides a wealth of information for families in need of specialized health care services,” said Dr. Joshua M. Sharfstein, DHMH Secretary.
