Working as a homecare nurse requires working independently and each day is different. Their car becomes their mobile office where they keep their supplies and equipment for the day.
Home care nurses treat patients for an array of health conditions and are responsible for providing nursing care, record keeping and building relationships with their assigned patients. Visiting patients at home enables them to gain a better understanding of how to tailor the treatment according to their patients’ needs. They typically make repeat visits to their patients which allows them to gain the satisfaction of seeing their patients’ progress over time.
