Here are a few ideas I am mulling about getting in Private Duty LPN Nursing, and would like feedback if anyone has had luck with this approach.
I am not interested in going through agencies at this point.
-Magnetic Business Cards
-Letters to churches, hospitals (trifold?)
-Letters to Hospitals/discharge planners
-Posting business card on boards of condos/trailer parks
-webpage (similiar to theroyaltreatmentllc.com )
-LLC or INC
-Medicaid or Medicare Private Provider
-Join local chamber of commerce
-Newspaper/business interview
Collecting letters of recommendations from previous patients.
This is only to get my first pvt duty case. What do you think? Thanks!!!!

Thank you for your input. Do the agencies have stipulations in which they can prevent you from hiring on w/ a client if that client decided to stop using their agency? I used to do travel nursing, and they had rules like that, to protect themselves. I am only asking because it sounds like, from what you said before, that many people start out w/ the agencies and then go private hire later.
So, their health insurance will cover for an independent nurse? If they aren't just coming home from a facility and have more chronic issues, how does the insurance company approve the nurse? How does this work?
I will need a thorough understanding of all the in's and out's if I'm going to be advertising for a job. I don't want to look like I'm fumbling my way through it. Not a good way to win people's confidance and trust.
What would a good "situations wanted" ad look like for this type of job?
Thanks again, to all.
