TenderCare Services will schedule an initial nursing assessment for any client who requires in home nursing care from an RN or LPN. This assessment visit is in order to establish the client’s medical condition and history, to help clients ascertain the level of service they require and to establish an appropriate care plan for the ongoing caregivers to adhere to.
Below is just one example of skilled in-home nursing care:
An hour long medication management visit each week. The RN or LPN will visit the client’s home and transfer all meds from their original containers into a 7 day medication dispenser. Any medication changes from the client’s physician are received by TenderCare Services and relayed to the Nurse; who will order new medication from the pharmacy and fill the dispenser or alternatively remove stopped medications from the dispenser. The nurse will re-order medications from the pharmacy before they run out, ensuring a constant supply. The nurse will also take vitals during her visit as well as address any medical concerns from either the client, or their caregiver.
