Children in our care benefit from living in a safe and structured environment where they are surrounded by a dedicated staff of more than 150. In addition to youth counselors, teachers and therapists, Ozanam also has medical staff on-call 24 hours a day. The medical program is supervised by a registered nurse and employs nursing personnel while utilizing psychiatrists and pharmacy consultants. Regular medication reviews are held to monitor children's needs, and regular medical and dental check-ups are provided. In case of a serious medical emergency, children are transported to one of several nearby hospitals. Ozanam also has an on-campus health clinic twice per week supported by the Adolescent Clinic at Children's Mercy Hospital.
