About Us
Children’s Nebraska’s Eating Disorders Partial Hospitalization program that provides specialized care for children and adolescents up to age 21. As the only pediatric program in the region, we are uniquely equipped to address the complex needs of both patients and their families. Our approach focuses not only on overcoming the eating disorder but also on equipping children with the tools for a healthy relationship with food.
The Eating Disorders Partial Hospitalization program prioritize family involvement, offering support and education on nutrition, communication and meal planning to help families navigate this journey. Through early intervention, our goal is to prevent the need for inpatient care, which often requires costly, out-of-state treatment. Our program empowers children to heal both physically and emotionally, setting them up for a healthy future.
