Private Duty Nursing
Private duty nursing services are designed to accomplish medically necessary, cost-effective management of acute and complex clinical conditions, in which there is a realistic expectation that within a finite and reasonable time period, the caregiver will be knowledgeable, independent and safe in providing the established plan of care. Private duty nursing allows your loved one to be cared for in their own home, even if they have complex medical needs. Essential Medical Services is a full hands-on team of health professionals that exemplify care in the support of both children and adults in their own homes.
