Maxim Healthcare Services

Congratulations to our 2023 National Caregiver of the Year, Tina Paradise-Hall, LPN, from Kansas City, KS! “If I had a loved one requiring skilled-nursing services, I would want Tina,” said Katelyn Keeney, Recruitment Operations Manager in the Kansas City office. “We all agree that she is one of the best Maxim has to offer, and we can always count on her to deliver compassionate, quality care.” For 20 years, Paradise-Hall has worked as a caregiver, spending the last five years with Maxim. Paradise-Hall is described by her patients’ families as a caring, highly-knowledgeable and passionate caregiver. She currently cares for a medically complex five-year-old boy who has spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. While there are many admirable qualities about Paradise-Hall, her colleagues all agree that she is an advocate for her patients. Recently, she was able to teach one of her young non-verbal patients how to use a communication device. She believed in her young patient’s abilities and was able to help him in school, advocating that he get to take part in learning the curriculum. The patient thrived under Paradise-Hall’s care and support, and the family largely credits her for their son’s academic success. #MaximCOY2023

"How do I become a PDN?" 1️⃣ Get a nursing degree. You’ll need to earn your LPN certificate, associate’s degree or bachelor’s degree in nursing to become a private duty nurse. 2️⃣ Pass the NCLEX exam. There may also be other licensing requirements specific to your state. 3️⃣ Gain experience. Whether you gain clinical experience while you’re getting your degree or after you pass the NCLEX exam, it’s important to get familiar working with patients in a variety of settings. 4️⃣ Earn additional certifications (optional). While there are no PDN-specific certifications required for this field, additional training and knowledge can be helpful.

The basics of a PDN shift: What do private duty nurses do? - Provide support with daily activities (e.g., personal hygiene, eating/diet, exercise, house chores and other tasks). - Collaborate with other healthcare professionals and family members who care for the patient. - Administer medications and help with wound care. - Manage symptoms of patient’s chronic illness. - Monitor patient’s overall medical status. ... and more. Compared to facility-based nurses, private duty nurses are less likely to work weekends and holidays, and are not subject to a hospital’s rigid shift schedule. It’s also feasible to work part-time as a PDN while furthering your education. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts there will be a 7 percent growth in nursing jobs within the next decade, which accounts for roughly 222,000 nursing positions.
