Private duty nursing is the care of clients by nurses , whether an RN Registered Nurse or LPN LVN Licensed Practical Nurse . Most nurses who provide private duty care are working one on one with individual clients. Sometimes such care is provided in the client s home, or an institution, such as a hospital , nursing home or other such facility. ref Private Practice in Nursing Development and Management , ISBN 0 89443 158 7 ref Private duty nursing was a far more widespread practice prior to the introduction in 1964 of intensive care unit s where nurses provide care to a limited number of clients in what is usually a more high tech situation. Many private duty nurses are self employed or work as contractors . The practice of private duty nursing was in many senses a precursor to a rise in the 1980s of wider scale nurse entrepreneurs . Non medical care could be provided by the nurse but is most often provided by unlicensed assistive personnel such as nursing assistants, home health aides, sitters, professional homemakers, or other titles.
