Skilled Nursing Services
Skilled nursing care may be necessary to ensure safety and protection. A doctor will prescribe home skilled nursing aid for seniors who need specialized attention. Skilled nurses can provide wound management, IV therapy, pain management, ostomy assistance, and other types of health care services that regular caregivers do not have experience with. Seniors with certain medical conditions or those healing from injuries or disabilities benefit significantly from a nurse’s assistance at home. While some facilities offer temporary skilled nursing care services, most seniors prefer being in the comfort of their homes instead of a facility as it helps speed up their healing and provides them with a higher level of focused care.
