Q1. How long does a nurse stay?

A1. The length of the nurse’s visit may be flexible when meeting an immediate need, but usually the nurse’s stay does not exceed two hours. Mother and infant care cases may exceed this time frame but must be arranged in advance.  For other cases, if longer service is required and home care remains appropriate, the nurse may assist in arranging for a private duty Christian Science nurse or aide.

The nurse’s normal work week is Monday through Friday.

Q2. What are the charges for visiting nurse services?

A2. Home visits are $50 per hour in ¼ hour increments, with a minimum charge of $50.  Travel within New Hampshire will be $10 per trip.  Travel outside New Hampshire will be $10 per trip plus a mileage charge from the New Hampshire border.  Supplies are billed at cost.  Some health insurance policies cover care provided by a Journal-listed Christian Science visiting nurse.  Benevolence is available, including a “friendly visit” (i.e. free introductory visit).
