A Home Health Aide is certified to assist in activities of daily living. An LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) is licensed to assist in activities of daily living as well as some skilled nursing needs. An RN (Registered Nurse) is licensed to assist in activities of daily living and perform skilled nursing needs at a higher level, while remaining within our policy.
