Our Private Duty Nursing Services

A home health nurse is typically the first line of defense against any complications which might arise due to the patient’s medical condition. Because they are licensed nurses, they are trained to properly assess and apply necessary medical procedures in an emergency situation, or be able to evaluate and properly advise doctors and emergency personnel concerning the patient’s condition. This makes a home nurse an extremely valuable asset when it comes to allowing you to recover in your home rather than in an institution.

What is Private Duty Nursing?

Private duty nursing or home care nursing is a type of medical service performed by a licensed vocational nurse (LVN), or a registered nurse (RN), in the privacy of your home. Their primary function is to perform medical-related services to their patients, or instruct and supervise patients and/or caregivers on how to perform certain, less critical, medical functions.

A home health nurse will typically carry out your doctor’s orders in the same way a nurse in a hospital or clinic would, but they perform their duties in your home. A home nurse is not typically a primary caregiver and usually does not assist in non-medical related care. The primary objective of a home health nurse is focused on specified medical needs.

 

Do I Need a Private Duty Nurse?

Assessing whether or not you need a private duty nurse or home nursing services is often not left up to you. Oftentimes, your release from a hospital or long-term care facility is contingent upon you being able to obtain the doctor-ordered medical care you require at home. If you or a caregiver can perform the medically necessary functions without the assistance or supervision of an LVN or RN, then you probably do not need one, otherwise, your doctor will probably require that you have a home nurse before he orders your release.

The conditions and treatments which typically require the assistance or supervision of a home health nurse in your home include but are not limited to:

 

Because of the technical implementation of these procedures and others, a home nurse is often assigned to you in the early part of your recovery at home in order to instruct and supervise you or your caregiver in how to carry out medical procedures that you require. As your recovery continues, your home nursing service will be phased out and the private duty nurse will play more of a supportive and supervisory role.
