Our Staff

Our staff at KCC are a diverse group of health care providers.  Their mix of talent and skill bring together the perfect team of workers.  Because of this, staff have the ability to meet the holistic needs of each child. Tapping into each skill and designation, they build the care around the child and their individual needs.  There is always a nurse on staff and two staff are on duty at all times.  Together the team develops individual care plans, menus and activities based on each unique group of children in respite at that time.
