Nursing Services

Our Compassion and Experience are our Greatest Assets

  • We operate a Primary Care Nursing model. This enables a long-term relationship to be established between the Pentec Health nurse, the patient and the referring physician’s office

  • Our Registered Nurses must be certified by Pentec Health before they are allowed to care for intrathecal pump patients

  • Extensive collaboration within the clinical team ensure the best possible care is consistently delivered to each patient
