Nursing Referral Service of Northern Virginia

Specialties

Since 1946, it has been the mission of Nursing Referral Service to serve the Northern Virginia community by bringing together professional independent care providers and those who seek nursing care. Our purpose is to facilitate the choice to remain in the comfort of one’s own home by providing access to better nursing care than would otherwise be received in a facility, and doing so at a lower cost. We support the concept of consumer-​directed care by empowering people to have a voice in matters affecting their health care. We defend entrepreneurship by providing a reliable avenue for nursing professionals who wish to work independently to market their services to the community. While taking a personal approach with every client, we promise to simplify health care by being knowledgeable, reliable, flexible, and responsive.

History

Established in 1946.

The DC area’s original home health care registry began as a co-​op among a few nurses to help patients in their home after discharge from the hospital. For more than 65 years, NRS has grown into a partner trusted by the area’s top discharge planners and social workers to help their patients. All caregivers are licensed by the State Board of Nursing, carry professional liability insurance, are bonded by the company, have extensive hands-​on experience, and have excellent references.

Working with his mother since high school, Tyras shares that passion for helping families in their time of need. With a bachelor of science degree in Health Systems Administration, Tyras is committed to continuing the company’s mission of providing quality care with integrity.
