A nurse concierge service provides personalized, private-pay nursing care outside of the traditional healthcare system—supporting clients before, during, and after medical procedures, offering wellness check-ins, transportation coordination, and peace-of-mind care in the comfort of home.

Yes! LPNs/LVNs absolutely can run concierge nursing services. The key is to stay fully within your state’s scope of practice and offer services that align with your license and competencies. Many successful concierge nurses are LPNs offering postoperative care, wellness visits, care coordination, and more. 

Maybe. It depends on your state regulations and how your business is structured. Some states allow you to add an assumed name / fictitious name (DBA) under your existing license. Others may require a separate business license because private-pay concierge care is not home health or Medicaid/Medicare regulated.
