Default Understanding skilled nursing care when medical needs increase

I’m reaching out because lately we’ve noticed my dad struggling more after his hospital discharge. He seems to need more than just help with meals or walking, but I’m not sure what level of care he actually needs now. He has regular medication, sometimes needs wound attention, and I worry we might be missing something more serious. It feels like our basic home help isn’t enough, and I keep hearing the phrase skilled nursing when people talk about medical support at home, but I don’t really understand it. Has anyone been through a similar situation where daily care wasn’t sufficient and you had to consider more clinical support at home or elsewhere? I want to make sure he gets the right help without overshooting what’s actually necessary.
