Aveanna patient Maya has been an incredible fighter from day one.

While she was still in utero, she was diagnosed with a neural tube defect in her lower spine and underwent a rare intrauterine procedure to correct it. She arrived early at 35 weeks and needed a VP shunt shortly after birth to help manage pressure on her brain. Even early on, her care team and family saw small signs of strength—little movements that showed she was already pushing forward.

A few weeks after leaving the hospital, Maya began showing signs of increased pressure again and had to return for another procedure. During that time, she also received a tracheostomy and began using a ventilator. Her next few months were spent in the hospital, with progress coming slowly and measured in very small steps.

After three months, Maya was able to come home, where she is now cared for by her parents and her Aveanna nurse, Bailey. Today, at just four months old, she’s continuing to grow and make progress at home, supported by a team that is fully committed to her care.

We could not be happier to welcome Maya and her family to Aveanna! Thank you to Nurse Bailey and all of our Aveanna clinicians who bring consistency, skill, and compassion—not just in critical moments, but every day in the home.

Every user deserves the same digital experience, including those with vision, hearing, mobility, and cognitive disabilities or impairments. Today and every day, we celebrate the power of accessibility and its ability to break down barriers that hinder equal opportunities for all.
