Private Duty Nursing and In Home care in Thousand Oaks, CA
In Home nursing for your loved ones, in their own home, to improve their health and happiness.
In home nursing care allows your loved one to get the help he or she needs without giving up independence. If your loved one is healthy, you might be able to meet his or her needs on your own or hire someone for traditional in-home care.
However, when having a family caregiver or home health aide isn't enough, we can help. A private duty nurse from Comfort Keepers® offers loved ones the level of care they need where they want it; not in a nursing facility or hospital, but in the comfort and safety of home.
What is Private Duty Nursing?
Unlike traditional in-home care services, private duty nurses provide one-on-one medical care. They are qualified to offer this care in the comfort of the patient's own home, or in a facility such as a hospital or nursing home. Private duty nurses are Registered Nurses (RNs) or Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs). They can offer advanced care, working in tandem with the family. Our goal is to provide the customized care needed by our clients, all from one source. We are proud to offer this service to families in the west valley, from Simi Valley, to Ventura, and Thousand Oaks.
