About Our Family Advisory Council (FAC)
At the heart of family-centered care is the belief that when kids, families, and health care providers work together, our children get the best care possible.
Our FAC is made up of a diverse group of families and Nemours Associates (employees) who have intimate experience with many of the inpatient and outpatient services available at Nemours Children’s Hospital, Delaware. It’s our goal to develop and foster partnerships among children, families, and providers by:
Advising
- assist in planning, evaluating, and implementing policies, programs,
and services
- offer trusted advice and resources for children, families, and Associates
Empowering
- provide information and education to kids and families
- assist in staff education and professional development
- encourage family involvement in hospital committees, task forces, and
work groups
Advocating
- promote the diverse needs of families caring for children with chronic or complex medical conditions
- engage the community as active, positive hospital ambassadors
