Services
Private Duty Nursing
Private Duty Nursing Services are skilled nursing services that are provided on a continuous basis to clients with complex medical needs of any age in their home. PDN services are provided under the direction of a written individualized order/ plan of care signed by the recipient’s attending physician. These services are provided by Registered nurses (RNs) and / or licensed practical nurses (LPNs). These are services that cannot be performed safely and effectively by nonprofessional personnel in the client’s home. The complexity of a patient’s medical condition and required course of treatment determine whether care should be provided by an RN or can be provided by an LPN.
