Skilled nursing
Clinical care delivered at home by a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) — wound care, medication management, monitoring of chronic conditions.
Ozhana Home Health Care provided in-home nursing, personal care and therapy services across the Orlando area. This archive preserves what each of those services involved, as a general reference on home health care.

Home health care spans clinical services delivered by licensed nurses and therapists, and non-clinical support that helps someone stay independent at home.
Clinical care delivered at home by a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) — wound care, medication management, monitoring of chronic conditions.
One-to-one nursing for people with complex or continuous needs, rather than short scheduled visits.
Hands-on help with bathing, dressing, grooming and mobility for people who need support to stay independent at home.
Physical, occupational and speech therapy delivered in the home rather than at a clinic.
Regular social contact and conversation — a service aimed at isolation, which has measurable effects on health in older adults.
Short-term cover so a family caregiver can rest. Respite exists to prevent caregiver burnout, which is a common reason home arrangements break down.
The distinction matters because it determines who may deliver a service and how it is usually funded.
Must be delivered by a licensed professional (RN, LPN, PT, OT, SLP). Ordered by a physician and documented in a plan of care.
Delivered by trained aides. Hands-on but non-medical: bathing, dressing, transfers, toileting.
Light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, errands. No hands-on personal care.
Social support and supervision. No physical assistance component.
A typical home health arrangement follows the same sequence regardless of provider.
A nurse visits to assess needs, home safety, medication and mobility, then documents a plan of care.
Skilled services generally require a physician's order and a defined plan of care before they can start.
Visit frequency and duration are set against the plan — from a weekly nurse visit to continuous private duty cover.
The plan is reassessed periodically and adjusted as the person's condition changes.
