Home Nursing

Professional nursing support delivered in the comfort and familiarity of the patient's own home, according to their individual needs and the professional scope of the assigned nurse.

Overview

Professional Nursing, in the Place Your Loved One Feels Most at Home

For many patients, the most comfortable place to recover or manage a long-term condition is their own home — surrounded by family, familiar routines and their own bed. Home nursing brings a qualified nurse to the patient, so they can receive professional attention without the stress, cost and tiring travel of repeated hospital visits.

Our nurses monitor the patient's condition, support medication routines, care for wounds where clinically appropriate, and keep a careful eye out for early warning signs that may need a doctor's attention. Because problems are noticed sooner, families have a better chance of acting early — and of avoiding an unnecessary return to hospital.

Every arrangement starts with an assessment and a written care plan agreed with the family, and all care is provided within the professional scope of the assigned nurse and in line with the guidance of the patient's doctor.

Who it's for

Families who want professional nursing support for a loved one without leaving the comfort of home — including patients recovering from illness, surgery, or living with an ongoing health condition.

Home nursing does not replace a doctor or emergency services. Our nurses work within their professional scope and refer to the patient's doctor or the nearest health facility whenever medical review is needed.

Common Questions

Home Nursing: Your Questions Answered

Home nursing is provided by a qualified nurse and covers clinical tasks such as monitoring, medication support and wound care. Home care is provided by a caregiver and focuses on everyday living — bathing, feeding, mobility and companionship. Many families use a combination, and we will recommend the right mix after the assessment.

A referral is not required to contact us, but if the patient is under a doctor's care we will ask for their discharge notes, prescriptions or instructions so that our nursing care follows the doctor's plan.

Yes. Home nursing can be arranged as short visits, day or night shifts, or round-the-clock cover, depending on the patient's needs.

Our nurses are not an emergency service. If the patient's condition becomes urgent, the nurse will help the family contact emergency services or take the patient to the nearest appropriate health facility, and keep the family informed.
