Children and youth with special health care needs (CYSHCN) comprise a growing proportion of the pediatric population; the patient- and family-centered medical home provides a comprehensive model for caring for these patients. Given the limited literature available as well as extreme patient vulnerability, we sought to understand the experience of Latino parents in caring for their CYSHCN within our patient-centered medical home in an urban neighborhood in North Philadelphia. A convenience sample of 14 mothers or grandmothers of CYSHCN participated in semistructured interviews, which were analyzed using a thematic, constant comparative approach to identify common themes. Themes identified included “Waiting,” “Communication/Trust,” “All-Consuming Requirements of Care/Sacrifice,” and “Fate/Faith/Blessings.” These themes corresponded with identified goals of the patient-centered medical home. Our findings suggest that the principles of the patient-centered medical home can be applied in unique ways to caring for this unique patient population.
