Skilled Nursing Requires a Physician's Order
Skilled nursing at home requires a physician's order and is part of skilled home health care. Focus Family Care is Medicare-certified, and Medicare covers skilled nursing at home when a doctor orders skilled care and the patient is homebound.
A registered nurse from Focus Family Care assesses each patient, writes the care plan, and supervises the nursing team. Patients who also need daily living support can add home health aides or personal care.
Private Duty Nursing at Home
Focus Family Care also provides private duty nursing, which is one-on-one nursing for clients with complex or around-the-clock medical needs. Private duty nursing supports adults and children, and Focus Family Care coordinates it with pediatric home care for medically complex children.
