Why would a Pediatric Patient require Specialty Nursing?
Often newborns might need to be observed and assessed once at home and new moms might need additional teaching and training to care for the special needs of their babies. Children requiring antibiotics, other medications, phototherapy, and nasal gastric feedings may also become specialty nursing patients. Why would an OB Patient require specialty nursing? Some Obstetrics patients require pre and post natal therapies in the home, additional hydration, and simple observation and assessment. Their obstetrician would refer them to BayCare HomeCare.
