Skilled Home Nursing in Fayetteville, AR

Skilled home nursing is medical care provided at home by a licensed RN or LPN under a physician's direction. It may benefit patients recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or requiring wound care, IV therapy, or medication management. Care is coordinated with the patient's physician and adjusted as health needs change. A Registered Nurse supervises every case to ensure clinical standards are met throughout the course of treatment.

Medicare may cover skilled home nursing when a patient meets specific eligibility requirements, including being homebound and having a documented medical need. Care IV Home Health is Medicare and Medicaid certified and licensed by the Arkansas State Department of Health. Additional coverage options include commercial insurance, workers' compensation, long-term care insurance, and private pay. Families are encouraged to contact Care IV to review which coverage sources may apply to their situation.
