Medical care at home

Registered and licensed nurses for medical needs that go beyond daily care.

When care calls for clinical skill — wound care, injections, medication management, or monitoring a complex condition — our registered and licensed practical nurses bring hospital-level attention into the home.

When you need skilled nursing

Some situations need more than an aide. A skilled nurse is licensed to perform clinical care that a CNA or HHA cannot — and having one at home can be the difference between recovering in your own bed and a return trip to the hospital.

  • Medication management, including injections and IV care
  • Wound care and dressing changes
  • Catheter, ostomy, and feeding-tube care
  • Diabetic management and monitoring
  • Post-hospital and post-surgical monitoring
  • Care for chronic and complex conditions

Backed by a nurse-owned registry

Best Care has been a nursing registry since 1980, and it's owned by a registered nurse. That matters: the person overseeing your case speaks the same clinical language as the nurse at your bedside, so nothing gets lost in translation between the family, the caregiver, and the doctor.

Skilled and non-skilled, one team. Many families use a skilled nurse for the medical tasks and a CNA or HHA for daily living — all coordinated by the same RN owner, on one schedule.

How it's paid

Skilled nursing at home is private pay or covered by a long-term care insurance policy. It is not the same as the short-term, doctor-ordered "home health" that Medicare covers for a limited window — private-duty nursing is ongoing and directed by you. Learn the difference →
