About KASA
At Boston Children's at Martha Eliot, we understand that caring for a child with medical complexity requires a team approach. In acknowledgement of this, the Kids with Special Abilities (KASA) program was created. Our KASA team includes your child's primary care provider, nurses, and a social worker.
The KASA team can help with:
- discussing symptoms that your child is experiences and deciding what to do
- working with home and school nursing
- making sure your child has the medicine and medical supplies they need
- understanding how to care for your child at home
- connecting you and your child to community resources, including mental and behavioral health services
- helping transition to adult care
To contact the KASA team, call the clinic at 617-971-2100 and let our staff know you would like to speak with someone on the KASA team.
