Skilled Nursing Services

There are some health-related conditions that may require specific skilled care at home. Our Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses provide a variety of specialized and highly skilled nursing services. In this type of home care, our skilled personnel come to the patient's home to provide a specific therapy or procedure, pursuant to physician instruction. This is the kind of home care offered under the Medicare Benefit. Some clients choose to pay directly for this type of care even when they do not have insurance coverage.

Nightingale Homecare's Registered Nurses also act as Case Managers - they teach and advise the patient and family members, coordinate the treatment plan with the other team members, and communicate with the patient's physician. We are committed to providing the highest quality and most cost-effective care for each individual patient.

• Assessment and intervention of the client's health condition
