Nursing

The main objective of Northern Lights is to allow a patient to heal or manage a chronic condition at home rather than entering or remaining in a health care facility. With this in mind, we have put together a strong nursing staff skilled in assisting you and your loved ones in a variety of ways, all while working under the orders of your own physician. Some of the services provided by our nurses include wound care, infusion therapy, catheter care, and skilled assessments. Our nurses are also well prepared to educate patients and their families and caregivers so the patient can become as independent as possible at managing their own health needs.

All Northern Lights Home Health Care nurses are licensed to work in New York State. They undergo a rigorous background check, receive additional training, and are required to attend ongoing in-service education throughout the year.
