The Children’s Continuing Care Team (CCT) is a team of experienced children’s nurses, Respiratory physiotherapists and family support workers. We provide care for children with complex health needs in the community - at home, school/nursery or respite centres. We are based in the KITE Department at the Royal Derby Hospital and provide care for children in Derby City and Derbyshire.
We aim to provide a high quality child and family centred service, promoting social inclusion and empowering the child, family and wider community through education, training and support. We facilitate the wishes of children with complex care needs to live at home, go to school, spend time with friends and participate in community activities.
Each child will be referred to our service by the Children’s Continuing Care case manager. Once this referral has been made, each family will be allocated a named nurse within the team to co-ordinate their child’s care.
