Private nursing and specialized wound care

What is private nursing and specialized wound care?

Nursing at home by a visiting registered nurse and wound dressings provided at home are only considered under specific clinical circumstances, usually in lieu of hospitalisation and funded from the general risk pool.

Private nursing/specialized wound care will be considered on an individual basis. These services must be rendered by a registered nurse registered with the South African Nursing Council and the private nurse must have a BHF practice number in order to claim for the service provided.
