Skilled, one-on-one care

Private Duty Nursing at Home

Private duty nursing puts a licensed nurse at your loved one’s side for the hours that matter most — not a rotating cast of strangers, but a consistent clinician who learns your family’s routine, preferences, and medical history. CaraLoom connects families across the United States directly with vetted registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs) who deliver skilled, one-on-one care in the comfort of home.

Unlike traditional agencies that bury a steep markup between you and the nurse, CaraLoom is a transparent marketplace. You see each clinician’s real credentials, experience, reviews, and hourly rate up front, then message and book the person you trust — often within hours of reaching out. Every nurse on the platform is identity-verified, license-checked, and background-screened before they can accept a single visit.

Whether you need a few hours of skilled oversight each day or around-the-clock coverage after a hospital discharge, private duty nursing gives families peace of mind that a qualified professional is monitoring medications, vital signs, and any change in condition — and escalating quickly if something looks off.

What private duty nursing includes

  • Medication administration, management, and reconciliation
  • Vital signs monitoring and clinical assessment
  • Wound care, dressing changes, and post-surgical care
  • IV therapy, injections, and infusion support
  • Catheter, ostomy, and feeding-tube care
  • Chronic disease management (diabetes, CHF, COPD)
  • Care coordination with physicians and family
  • Detailed, AI-assisted clinical notes after every visit

Who private duty nursing is for

  • Seniors who want to age safely at home instead of a facility
  • Patients recovering from surgery or a hospital stay
  • Adults managing complex or multiple chronic conditions
  • Families needing skilled overnight or 24-hour coverage
  • Medically fragile children and young adults

Serving families nationwide

HIPAA-ready End-to-end encrypted Background-checked

CaraLoom is a technology marketplace, not a direct care provider. Clinicians are independent licensed professionals. We verify identity and licenses at onboarding and monitor them on an ongoing basis; because no screening is exhaustive, use your judgment when choosing care. See our Trust & Safety page.

A marketplace, not a care provider

CaraLoom is a technology marketplace and care-coordination platform — not a healthcare provider, staffing agency, or employer of clinicians. Clinicians are independent, licensed professionals who run their own practices. Bookings, rates, and care plans are agreements made directly between families and clinicians.

Payments & settlement

CaraLoom is a software platform and not a bank, escrow agent, or money transmitter. We utilize third-party payment processors (Stripe and Stripe Connect) to facilitate direct clinician-to-family transactions based on verified service-delivery milestones. Funds are secured up-front at booking and scheduled for payout once the clinician signs the clinical visit log.

Profiles & verification

Profiles, reviews, and messages are created by our users. We verify each clinician's identity and license at onboarding and monitor license status on an ongoing basis. No screening is ever exhaustive, so we encourage families to interview clinicians and use their own judgment when choosing care. See what we check on our Trust & Safety page.
