What is In-Home Nursing Care?
In-home nursing care—also known as skilled nursing care at home—is medical care provided by licensed nurses to patients in their own homes. It includes services like:
Monitoring vital signs
Wound care and dressing changes
Medication management and injections
Chronic disease management (e.g., diabetes, hypertension)
Post-surgical care
Catheter and ostomy care
Education on disease and treatment plans
These services are often necessary after a hospital stay or for patients managing long-term health conditions.
Does Medicare Cover In-Home Nursing Care?
Yes—under specific conditions.
Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) and/or Part B (Medical Insurance) will cover skilled nursing care at home if certain criteria are met:
To qualify, the following must apply:
You must be under the care of a doctor and receiving services under a plan of care reviewed regularly by a doctor.
You must need skilled nursing care intermittently (not full-time).
The care must be medically necessary.
You must be homebound, meaning it’s difficult to leave your home without assistance.
The home health agency must be Medicare-certified.
At Avant Care, we help clients understand and navigate these requirements to ensure they receive the benefits they deserve.
