When your loved one needs hands-on clinical care but doesn’t want to leave home, StarCare’s private pay skilled nursing visits bring a registered nurse directly to your door. There’s no waiting for insurance authorization, no visit caps, and no compromise on the level of care — care can start within hours of your call.
For families across Odessa, Midland, Hobbs, and the surrounding Permian Basin, this means hospital-level clinical expertise delivered in the comfort and privacy of home. Whether your loved one is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or navigating a complex medication regimen, our RNs provide the skilled oversight that keeps them safe, stable, and out of the hospital.
StarCare’s registered nurses deliver a full range of clinical services in the home, including:
Wound assessment and treatment — Expert management of surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, diabetic wounds, and complex dressings.
Medication administration and management — Injections, IV therapy, dosage adjustments, and oversight of complex medication regimens.
Vital sign and health monitoring — Blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen levels, blood sugar, and ongoing condition tracking.
Post-hospital and post-surgical follow-up — Skilled care that reduces readmission risk and supports a safe recovery at home.
Injections, catheter and ostomy care — Safe, sterile technique for injections, urinary catheters, ostomy maintenance, and tube care.
Coordination with your physician — Direct communication with your doctor, specialists, and pharmacy to keep the care plan aligned.
Each visit is documented and reported to your physician, so nothing falls through the cracks. Families receive clear updates, and your care team stays fully informed.
Insurance-based home health often comes with strict eligibility rules, limited visits, and weeks of authorization. Private pay removes every barrier. With StarCare private pay skilled nursing, you get:
No waiting periods — a nurse can be at your door within hours.
No visit limits — daily, weekly, or as needs change.
No eligibility restrictions — you don’t have to be “homebound” or meet insurance criteria.
Consistent, familiar nurses — the same trusted clinician, whenever possible.
Complete control — you decide the frequency and duration of care.
For many families, private pay is the bridge between hospital discharge and long-term stability — delivering the clinical oversight that insurance won’t authorize, exactly when it’s needed.
Our skilled nursing visits are ideal for:
Patients discharged from the hospital or rehab who need ongoing clinical monitoring.
Seniors managing chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, COPD, or hypertension.
Individuals with complex wounds requiring professional assessment and dressing changes.
Post-surgical patients needing IV therapy, injections, or catheter care.
Veterans seeking skilled nursing through VA benefits or private pay.
Anyone who needs clinical care now — not after a lengthy approval process.

Q: How quickly can a skilled nurse visit my home?
A: With private pay, there are no insurance approvals or waiting periods. A nurse can typically be at your door within hours of your call.
Q: What’s the difference between skilled nursing and personal care?
A: Skilled nursing involves clinical care delivered by a licensed RN or LPN — such as wound care, injections, and medication management. Personal care covers non-medical daily tasks like bathing and dressing. StarCare offers both.
Q: Do I need to be homebound to receive skilled nursing?
A: Not with private pay. Insurance-based home health often requires homebound status, but private pay has no such restriction.
Q: Can the nurse coordinate with my doctor?
A: Yes. Our nurses communicate directly with your physician and specialists to keep your care plan aligned and up to date.
Q: Is skilled nursing at home covered by Medicare?
A: Medicare covers skilled nursing under specific conditions, but with limits and approvals. StarCare’s private pay option removes those barriers so care can begin immediately.
