A home health nurse can work with patient of any age group. They
provide patient education, treatment, and emotional support to help these individuals recover from injuries and illnesses. The nurse requires a high level of skill to work in someone’s
home.
It requires excellent rapport, understanding, and communication
with the patients and their family members. A home health nurse does not work with a team as a part of his or her daily duties but rather as an individual working with the family as a
team.
A home health nurse is also responsible for coordinating with
doctors and other healthcare professionals in regards to their home health patients. They coordinate patient medications between the pharmacists and doctor to ensure that patients properly manage
precise dosages.
