Home healthcare nurses provide at-home care for patients of all ages that have a variety of treatment needs, from disabled children to chronically ill elderly patients. The major professional organization is the Home Healthcare Nurses Association (HHNA), which is an affiliate of the National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC). The American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) has retired its Home Health Nursing (RN-BC) and Clinical Nurse Specialist in Home Health Nursing (HHCNS-BC) credential exams, but renewal is still possible. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts especially excellent job growth for home healthcare nurses, at 33% between 2008 and 2018.
