The CoACH Care Center
(Coordinating Action for Children’s Health)

At CoACH Care Center, our mission is to uniquely enhance the lives of children facing serious and ongoing medical challenges.


CoACH Care Center is a not-for-profit children’s care center. Founded by parents of medically fragile children.  This 10-bed facility is housed in a 4,000 square foot home set on 2 1/2 acres of land.  It is the first of its kind in the nation and the only one in Illinois.  It is recognized as a multidisciplinary model of excellence for the short-term clinical care of children who are medically fragile and who may also be technology-depdndent. 

Children in the Respite Care program can be here for up to two weeks a year, and the 120-day Transitional Program serves as a bridge between hospital and home.  

The child-friendly decor and beautifully landscaped grounds make CoACH a wonderful "home-away-from-home."  The Center is open seven days a week, 24-hours a day, so that families can spend maximal available time with their child.
