- Wound care management: Nurses can treat and care for various types of wounds to promote healing, prevent infection, and minimize complications.
- Monitoring and Assessment: Regular assessments of a patient’s condition, progress, and vital signs can be conducted to ensure the effectiveness of the care plan.
- Chronic Disease Management: Home nursing care can be tailored to manage chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and COPD, providing ongoing support and education to patients and their families.
- Specialized Care such as Post-Surgical Care: After surgery, patients may require home nursing care for wound care, post-operative monitoring, and rehabilitation.
