PDN services are provided under the direction of a written individualized order\/ plan of care signed by the recipient\u2019s attending physician. These services are provided by Registered nurses (RNs) and \/ or licensed practical nurses (LPNs). These are services that cannot be performed safely and effectively by nonprofessional personnel in the client\u2019s home. The intricacy of a patient\u2019s medical condition and required course of treatment determine whether care should be provided by an RN or can be provided by an LPN.<\/p>\n
