Skilled Nursing Care
Hospital-quality nursing, at your kitchen table

Some health needs require a licensed nurse — wound care, injections, complex medications, a trained eye watching for the subtle signs. But needing nursing care doesn’t mean needing a hospital bed.
Anova Care’s skilled nursing brings registered nurses and licensed practical nurses into your home across Denver and Colorado Springs. They bring the same clinical skill you’d find in a hospital, delivered with the warmth and unhurried attention you can only get at home. We are Medicare & Medicaid Certified and Licensed & Insured, and we coordinate closely with your physician so everyone caring for you is on the same page.

Who it’s for
Skilled nursing at home is for people managing complex health needs: recovering from surgery, living with chronic illness, healing wounds, juggling complicated medications, or bouncing in and out of the hospital. If your doctor has said you need nursing care — but home is where you want to be — this is for you.
How to start
Home health services typically begin with an order from your physician — and we handle that coordination for you. Call us at (888) 929-2050, and we’ll talk with you, contact your doctor, verify your coverage, and schedule your first nursing visit. We work with UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Kaiser, Medicaid, Medicare, Humana, and Devoted. Coverage varies by plan, so call us and we’ll help verify yours.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a doctor’s order for skilled nursing?
Yes, home health nursing requires a physician’s order — but don’t let that stop you from calling. We work with your doctor’s office every day and will take care of the paperwork.
What’s the difference between skilled nursing and home care?
Home care helps with daily life — bathing, meals, housekeeping. Skilled nursing is clinical care by licensed nurses — wounds, medications, assessments. Many families use both together, and we can coordinate the two seamlessly.
How often will the nurse visit?
It depends on your doctor’s orders and your needs — from a few visits a week to daily visits during critical periods. Your nurse will reassess regularly and adjust.
Will my insurance cover this?
We work with UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Kaiser, Medicaid, Medicare, Humana, and Devoted. Coverage varies by plan — call us at (888) 929-2050 and we’ll verify your benefits before care begins, so there are no surprises.
