Premier Kids Home Care

Co-founded by Josh Owens, Marco Hernandez, and a team of partners, the company employs between 51 and 200 staff and focuses exclusively on delivering in-home nursing care to medically fragile infants, children, and adolescents. PKHC hires both Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) for one-on-one home-based patient assignments, with immediate openings frequently available across both metro regions. The organization positions itself as addressing a systemic gap in the PDN industry: the persistent shortfall between authorized nursing hours and actually staffed hours for pediatric patients. PKHC states it is committed to improving access to care through operational efficiency, communication, and building a strong nursing team. Nurses work in patients' homes providing care that may include trach care, G-tube management, ventilator support, and assistance with daily living activities. The company offers clinical training and support for nurses who may not yet have high-tech pediatric experience, indicating a willingness to develop staff in specialized skills.

PKHC's stated mission centers on solving the access-to-care crisis in pediatric private duty nursing. The organization identifies the widening gap between authorized nursing hours and actual staffed hours as a core problem and commits to addressing it through efficiency, communication, and building a strong workforce. Their values emphasize dedication to the well-being of medically fragile children, supporting families, and retaining nurses in the PDN field by creating a better system.
