End of Life Care
Skilled nursing refers to the specialized care provided by licensed healthcare professionals, such as registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs). These professionals have received extensive training and education in medical procedures, medication administration, wound care, and other advanced nursing skills. Skilled nursing is typically provided in a clinical setting, such as a hospital or a skilled nursing facility.
On the other hand, non-skilled nursing refers to the assistance provided by caregivers who do not have formal medical training. Non-skilled caregivers may assist with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. They may also provide companionship and emotional support to individuals who require assistance with daily tasks but do not have complex medical needs.
