With private duty nursing in Marietta, seniors with medical conditions can remain at home where they are most comfortable. You should consider this option if you have an elderly family member who does not wish to transfer to a nursing home but who has advanced medical needs. The private duty nurse provided by Comfort Keepers of Marietta has your loved one's best interests at heart, putting your mind at ease and keeping their independence intact.

What is a Private Duty Nurse?

Private duty nurses are fully trained and accredited health care professionals who either hold a Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse (LPN/LVN) or a Registered Nurse (RN) designation. A private duty nurse has passed all state licensing requirements, but instead of working for a hospital, they work for a home health care agency like Comfort Keepers. Private duty nurses are equipped with the necessary education and skills to provide your loved one with effective one-on-one care. The services of private duty nurses are often used to supplement the services of traditional caregivers.
