When do i need a nurse to come into the home to supplement my caregiving?

You are overwhelmed: I suggest a nurse for when you are overwhelmed whether it be emotionally or physically. There may be treatments you cannot physically or emotionally do, ie wound care or IV fluids or injections.

Caregiving: Excellent response by Dr. Cullen. Professional nursing care may be necessary when you have been assigned tasks that exceed your skill set or that are too emotionally draining or upsetting for you.
