These services may be provided as part of a physician-directed care plan and adjusted as a client’s health status changes:

  Care includes monitoring catheter function, maintaining proper hygiene, and identifying signs of infection or complications that should be reported to a healthcare provider.

  In-home care involves following basic infection prevention practices such as proper hand hygiene, equipment handling, and environmental cleanliness to reduce the risk of illness or complications.

  Clients living with conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, or respiratory illness may require ongoing monitoring. Nurses help track symptoms, reinforce care instructions, and communicate relevant health updates to medical providers when needed.
