Ours usually doesn't stay for more than a day or two - and usually the idea is that any community nurses report, in person or by phone, to the nearest base, rather than their usual one, and see to the patients nearest to where they live.
Specialists like me chip in if we need to, and otherwise check with our patients by phone, so on the whole we don't have to drive very much!
