Accidents happen. Whether it's a car accident, a sports injury, a mishap while diving, skiing or hiking, or simply a hard fall, we are here to help. With a combination of our nursing and caregiver services, you can rest assured that you are in capable hands as you move toward recovery.
A traumatic injury that turns your life upside down can happen anywhere in the world. With a Privatus nurse, our first step is to provide support in the hospital as a bedside companion and/or advocate as your plan of care is determined and put into motion. After discharge, receive assistance in the comfort of your own home, in a hotel or other alternative setting. Privatus can provide a range of services to support you on your healing journey:
- Travel nursing, both domestic and international, for situations where an injury occurs away from home
- Nursing escorts to transport you to/from follow-up appointments
- Assist with activities of daily living, such as showering, getting dressed
- Assist with specialized medical equipment, such as wheelchairs, prosthetics, or casts
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary team
- Provide emotional support
A real-world example of services we have provided – One of our former clients suffered a spinal cord injury after a skiing accident in Switzerland. Knowing and trusting our unique capabilities, healthcare professionals in the area directed her family to Privatus. A Privatus travel nurse from Boston flew to Switzerland to accompany her back to an apartment near Massachusetts General Hospital. All care needs were managed in flight without interruption. Upon return in Boston, we provided ongoing assistance and daily transportation until a long-term plan was put in place.
Whether it is for a situation this serious or for something as simple as a shoulder fracture, we can provide full support so your busy life stays on track.
