NMC Health | Private Duty

NMC Health Private Duty provides in-home care services in Newton, Kansas and the surrounding South Central Kansas region. The service offers personal care assistance and help with daily activities for individuals seeking to maintain independence while receiving support in their own homes.

The private duty team assists with daily living activities including getting dressed, bathing, personal care, transfers, and walking assistance. Services also extend to household support such as housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, and running errands. Post-surgery recovery support and medication setup are available to help individuals through transitions or manage ongoing needs.

NMC Health Private Duty offers flexible scheduling options, with services available daily, weekly, monthly, or as needed. Clients can adjust their schedule at any time to match their changing requirements. The service is distinct from home health care in that private duty services are not typically covered by insurance and do not involve skilled medical care, but rather focus on non-medical assistance with day-to-day activities.

Private duty services are generally paid out of pocket, though some private insurance policies and long-term care insurance may provide coverage. The service is available to individuals of any age who need assistance with daily living. NMC Health Private Duty operates as part of the broader NMC Health system, which includes the NMC Health Medical Center.
