ShadowNurse
Put a Registered Nurse in Your Family
Real nurses, real relief.
We offer a free sign up and eligibility check with zero obligations. Find out today if you qualify for ShadowNurse’s remote, Medicare-eligible service.
ShadowNurse helps patients and families manage day‑to‑day healthcare during and between medical visits, especially seniors with chronic or serious illness.
We coordinate care, remove barriers (medical, social, and logistical), and keep everyone on the same page so problems are caught early and hospitalizations are less likely.
Often times, one person ends up managing all the hard parts of healthcare for aging parents. ShadowNurse is the first online platform that puts a dedicated nurse to work for your family.
This is called healthcare coordination, and until now, it’s been missing.
Healthcare coordination means making sure nothing slips through the cracks; medications, appointments, follow-ups, and real support for your whole family.
And brings relief to caregivers like you.
Some example benefits include:
Proactive appointment orchestration and ride/co-pilot planning
Medication cleanup: refills, interactions, and adherence prompts
Insurance plan support, phone calls, and coordination - you never need to wait on hold again to access your benefits
Benefits navigation: Extra Help, MSP, SNAP, utility relief, and more
Family text thread updates + visit summaries you can trust
Quarterly progress check with outcomes snapshot
And more - truly unique to whatever your needs are

“We started using ShadowNurse for my father-in-law, and it’s already made a huge difference. We’ve struggled for years to get clear details from his medical visits, but within just a few appointments ShadowNurse helped us finally understand what treatments he needs and why, information he never thought to share. We’re also now aware of his upcoming appointments ahead of time, which means we can plan rides and avoid those last-minute night-before phone calls. The pre-visit conversations have been incredibly helpful in preparing both him and our family. We’re hoping ShadowNurse will eventually expand to include help with coordinating transportation, but even now, it’s been an invaluable support for all of us.” - Sheri, caregiver

“I recently brought my ShadowNurse with me by phone to a cardiology appointment, and I’m so glad I did. I’m a 79-year-old lifelong runner, and when my cardiologist suddenly told me to stop competing, I was so shocked and worried that I couldn’t focus on anything else she said. My ShadowNurse listened for me, asked thoughtful questions, clarified what tests I might need, and later shared helpful resources to make sense of the news. It was incredibly comforting to have someone who understands my medical history and was fully dedicated to helping me process unexpected, life-changing advice.” - David P., patient

“Most patients do not have an advocate for their healthcare if no family members or close friends are available. Often times, the primary point of contact for health care decisions may be out of state or too far to be able to attend doctor appointments to advocate for family member's care. I love the premise behind the company and that it addresses an area of healthcare not yet tapped.”. - Rosemary, caregiver
-
“Your company is what healthcare needs! In my nursing career, I have encountered so many people who just need a hand to navigate healthcare billing, diagnoses, treatment plans, health coaching, ....(the list goes on and on!)” - Michelle, RN, BSN, CCM
-
“I appreciate the mission of ShadowNurse to extend beyond traditional nursing to make a positive lasting impact on people in need of healthcare.” - Chelsea, RN
-
“A resounding YES after YES. The current healthcare system is not optimized for patient understanding and ability to navigate through it, and this company is bridging that large gap.” - Angela, RN
