FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is private duty nursing?

Private duty nursing is dedicated, one-on-one skilled nursing care delivered in the home for extended shifts — often 4 to 24 hours — for medically complex patients who need continuous monitoring, such as ventilator or tracheostomy care.

Who typically needs a private duty nurse?

Children and adults with tracheostomies, ventilator dependence, complex feeding needs, seizure disorders, or those recovering from a prolonged ICU stay who need more continuous care than a standard home health visit provides.

Does insurance cover private duty nursing?

Coverage varies by state and plan. Medicaid (including EPSDT for children) covers medically necessary private duty nursing in many states; commercial coverage is inconsistent, and many families combine insurance with private pay.

How is a private duty nurse different from a home health nurse?

Home health nurses make time-limited visits. Private duty nurses provide extended, dedicated shifts for patients who need continuous skilled monitoring.
