Meet Private Duty Nursing Manager, Shakira Rodriguez

My name is Shakira Rodriguez, and I serve as OurCare Health’s Private Duty Nursing Manager. What I love most about home care is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with patients and families while helping individuals receive skilled care in the comfort of their own homes. I am passionate about connecting families with qualified, compassionate nurses who understand each patient’s unique needs. Through my work in Private Duty Nursing, I have seen firsthand how important one-to-one care can be for individuals with complex medical conditions. My goal is to ensure every patient and family receives personalized, dependable, and supportive care. I believe Private Duty Nursing is about more than healthcare services. It is about helping people live with greater comfort, dignity, independence, and quality of life.
Skilled Nursing Care at Home
Private Duty Nursing (PDN) is one-to-one skilled nursing care delivered in the home by a licensed Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Unlike intermittent home health visits, PDN provides dedicated nursing coverage for extended periods of time based on the patient’s medical needs and physician recommendations.
Because our nurses are licensed medical professionals, they can perform skilled clinical tasks beyond the scope of home health aides or companion caregivers while providing compassionate support that promotes comfort, dignity, and independence.
Private duty nursing can be provided in the home, at school, or within the community, giving families peace of mind knowing a trained clinician is always available when needed.
Pediatric Private Duty Nursing
Children with medically complex conditions often require ongoing clinical monitoring and specialized nursing support. OurCare’s pediatric private duty nurses provide skilled care that allows children and young adults to receive advanced medical support while remaining in familiar surroundings.
Our nurses provide the following services, including but not limited to:
- Ventilator management
- Tracheostomy care
- Feeding tube management
- Seizure monitoring
- Medication administration
- Chronic condition management
- School-based nursing support
Our goal is to help children thrive while reducing unnecessary hospitalizations and supporting families throughout their care journey.
Adult Private Duty Nursing
Adults and seniors recovering from illness, injury, surgery, or hospitalization often benefit from professional nursing support at home.
Our private duty nurses help clients:
- Recover following hospital discharge
- Manage chronic diseases
- Maintain independence

With one-to-one nursing care, families gain reassurance knowing their loved one has a dedicated clinical professional supporting their health and wellbeing.
