CHIP of Roanoke Valley
Who is Child Health Investment Partnership (CHIP) of Roanoke Valley?
(No, we're not the state insurance program!)
CHIP of Roanoke Valley offers health-focused, home visiting services to low-income families and their children (birth to age 7), utilizing
teams of registered nurses, family case managers and a licensed mental health counselor. At enrollment, needs specific to each family are
identified which may begin with pregnancy education. Depending upon the individualized needs of each family, CHIP connects enrolled
caretakers and their children with doctors, specialists, pediatric dentists and a counselor if needed. The following services are provided free
to CHIP enrolled families:
OVERALL PHYSICAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT
CHIP establishes a medical home for newly enrolled children,
communicates with doctors and reviews medical records to ensure
each child meets immunization schedules and developmental
milestones.
PRENATAL & POSTPARTUM CARE
CHIP nurses work with expectant mothers of all ages to promote
optimal birth weight, decrease infant mortality and stop or reduce
high-risk behaviors including smoking.
ORAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT
CHIP connects each enrolled child to a dental home and applies
fluoride varnishes from 9 months to 36 months to optimize their oral
health and hosts Dental Days to provide in-kind dental screenings.
ASTHMA CASE MANAGEMENT
CHIP nurses provide monthly home visits designed to complement
the primary care provider or pulmonologist care an asthmatic child
receives.
MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING
CHIP's Licensed Clinical Social Worker provides play therapy for
enrolled children and therapeutic counseling for caretakers of CHIP
children in CHIP's Counseling Center.
HEALTH LITERACY AND EDUCATION
CHIP educates parents to increase health literacy and communicate
more effectively with doctors.
TRANSPORTATION
CHIP provides more than 600 transports annually to appointments
for CHIP clients.
FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY
CHIP caregivers are encouraged to establish goals and linkages
with community resources, further parental education levels and
maintain their child's developmental and literacy achievement to
promote school readines.s
