You’re Invited: PPEC Open Tours Event
Tender Care provides skilled nursing services in a daycare-like environment.
Join Us for Our PPEC Open Tours Event
When it comes to Pediatric Prescribed Extended Care (PPEC), many families assume that all centers operate the same way. The truth is… they don’t. Each PPEC has its own environment, care approach, staff culture, and level of support. Finding the right fit can make a meaningful difference for both your child and your family.
That’s why we’re inviting families to come see our center for themselves.

Tender Care provides care for medically complex and fragile children from birth to 21 years of age in a daycare-like environment staffed with nurses, CNAs, and therapists. We are the first independently owned PPEC in the State of Florida with our initial center opening in 1988. This means we have an abundance of experience and knowledge in providing loving care to this special pediatric population. We have 6 Tender Care PPEC centers throughout Florida, with our newest facility located in Gainesville.
Our goal is to enhance the development of each child through collaborative relationships between families, physicians, nurses, and therapists. This holistic approach to care is carried out in an environment that allows the child to engage in social interactions with their peers. This results in thriving children, well-positioned to achieve their greatest potential. We also offer transportation at no cost and provide nutritious meals throughout the day.
What sets us apart is that we care for and treat every child like family. We have passion in our hearts for our children and a desire to see them succeed.
We are so excited to have a table at this fair and can’t wait to meet all the families that attend.
