How Do You Determine if Private Nursing is Appropriate?
Initial Consultation
All services begin with a consultation which can start on the phone but then continue in person, either at home or in a healthcare facility or hospital. It is conducted by a Broad Street Nurse Care Manager and can be in collaboration with any other applicable clinicians in your healthcare network. This could include your Primary Care Physician and Physician Specialists, as well as Physical, Speech and Occupational Therapists, Social Workers and any other health support.
The focus is to not only determine which things need to be done to help manage your underlying health conditions but also to determine how that support is best delivered in the context of your daily life.
Your Decision
After the Consultation, the Broad Street Care Manager can discuss options with you and your family including the following:
The type of care – What specific activities or tasks need to be completed on a daily basis
The level of care – How much support you need and the types of resources
Any specific skilled nursing needs – Specific activities that can only be performed by an RN or LPN
Recommendations – Suggestions on a daily routine that supports your underlying health conditions
While the focus is on health and safety, it is also about quality of life. Working together with you and your family, we can come up with a solution that accomplishes your needs and preferences.
With a variety of capabilities and experience, Broad Street has the ability to provide a Comprehensive Home Care and Home Nursing Solution but with the flexibility to customize to your unique needs and preferences.
What Situations Often Require Private Nursing?
Broad Street’s deeper level of engagement and solutions-based approach, provides us with the ability to manage more complex underlying health conditions. The underlying health conditions often require activities that require a higher level of skill that can only be provided by a registered nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).
Depending on the frequency of the Private Nursing need along with the severity of the condition, the service may not be covered by Medicare or Insurance. And in other cases, it may be provided but with not enough frequency or duration to be effective.
This can often be the case in the following scenarios:
Extended Rehabilitation – significant support above and beyond Medicare Solution to regain health and avoid re-hospitalization
Self Care or Family Care – When specific Private Nursing tasks are expected to be performed by you or a family member, but without the ability or comfort to perform the required Skilled Nursing Tasks
Chronic Conditions – Where long term care needs include Private Nursing Tasks but the Client does not want to live in a Skilled Nursing Home
Broad Street is very experienced and knowledgeable about a variety of Chronic and Acute Conditions, and can incorporate whatever support is needed into the Plan of Service, including Direct Home Care Support, Private Skilled Nursing, and Patient Advocacy into the Plan of Service. Specific conditions and services we support are included below.

Broad Street Solutions in Senior Care
Home Care is all about people, probably more than any other service that exists. It is filled with complexities and uncertainties, because every human being is different. But if we embrace that fact, we can then redirect our focus and approach every situation and every person uniquely. Because we know that within all of that complexity lies the potential for great relationships, relationships based on genuine care.
At Broad Street, we spend the time to understand the details, to prioritize the needs and attributes as well as work through the challenges and constraints. It is through this process that we continue to learn and adapt. Life is inherently unpredictable. But with greater understanding, we can better anticipate and manage towards not only a solution but towards creating a great and fulfilling experience for everyone involved.
