Pediatric Complex Care of Arkansas

What Pediatric Complex Care of Arkansas does

Pediatric Complex Care of Arkansas (PCCA), founded in 1986 (formerly Arkansas Pediatric Facility), is a private, non-profit long-term residential healthcare facility located at 4100 Heritage Drive in North Little Rock, Arkansas. The organization provides integrated medical, therapeutic, and educational care for approximately 58 children, from birth through age 21, with medically and developmentally complex needs including cerebral palsy, spina bifida, chromosomal disorders, traumatic brain injuries, hydrocephalus, tracheostomies, and seizure disorders (excluding ventilator-, IV-, or TPN-dependent children). Services are delivered by a multidisciplinary staff of more than 100, including Advanced Practice RNs, RNs, LPNs, medical assistants, CNAs, physical, occupational, and speech therapists, respiratory therapists, certified special education teachers, social workers, and dietary and support personnel, organized across five purpose-built classrooms with differing sensory environments.

The core service offering combines 24-hour nursing care, on-site physician visits, and transportation to outside appointments, supplemented by on-site specialty clinics (Neurology, Gastroenterology, Endocrinology), respiratory therapy, and integrated physical, occupational, and speech-language therapy. An on-site special education school operates on the local school district calendar with year-round programming, supported by a home visit program that allows residents up to 14 consecutive nights at home. The business model is single-payer: all services are funded through Arkansas Medicaid Managed Care under the Provider Led Shared Savings Entity (PASSE) program, and the facility holds licensure from the Arkansas Office of Long Term Care as an Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Intellectual Disability. Go-to-market is direct-to-family via application-based admissions, with awareness generated through word-of-mouth referrals, family testimonials, social media (Facebook, LinkedIn), and recruitment channels (Indeed); families can arrange tours with the on-site social worker.
