Private duty nursing delivers one-on-one clinical care at home for clients with complex or long-term needs.
Families work directly with our registered nurses and licensed practical nurses to design schedules that match daily routines, medical orders, and personal preferences.
What Private Duty Nursing Includes
- Clinical oversight from registered nurses with coordination across your healthcare team
- Shift-based or hourly visits funded privately or through long-term care insurance
- Care that can be combined with companion, homemaker, or respite services
Unlike Medicare-funded home health, private duty care does not require a qualifying event and can continue for as long as your family needs support.
Clinical Roles on Your Case
Registered Nurses (RN)
- Assess health status, coordinate orders, and educate families about diagnoses
- Deliver skilled interventions such as wound care, IV therapy, and medication management
- Collaborate with physicians, therapists, and pharmacies to keep care plans aligned
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN)
- Provide bedside care including vitals, injections, and catheter or tracheostomy support
- Assist with bathing, dressing, mobility, and comfort measures under RN supervision
- Document changes in condition and escalate concerns to the clinical team
Pediatric & Neonatal Specialists
- Experienced “baby nurses” who organize nurseries, feeding plans, and monitoring equipment
- Support breastfeeding or bottle-feeding routines and overnight schedules
- Recognize early signs of complications such as jaundice, reflux, or respiratory distress
When Private Duty Nursing Is the Right Fit
Our registry supports clients who need clinical attention beyond what traditional home health visits provide.
- Complex diagnoses that require continuous monitoring, ventilator support, or specialized equipment
- Post-hospital transitions where families need overnight nurses to stabilize routines at home
- Pediatric or neonatal cases that call for experienced “baby nurses” and family coaching
- Adults managing chronic illnesses who prefer consistent care from familiar clinicians
