Bedside caregivers at home in Mumbai

Someone to do the lifting, the bathing and the watching.

A verified attendant or nurse comes to your home for the parts of the day a family cannot keep doing alone — the sponge bath, the turning, the trip to the hospital, the vitals nobody has written down since Tuesday. Book a single visit or standing cover.

₹448+per visit — the attendant, the care and the consumables.

What the price covers
  • A verified attendant or nurse, with their documents and police verification checked
  • Hygiene care, turning, positioning, transfers, feeding and mobility support
  • Vitals recorded and left written down for the family and the doctor
  • Gloves, apron and the consumables the visit itself needs
  • An office to ring, and a replacement the same day if someone does not arrive
What it does not
  • Cooking, cleaning, dishes and household laundry
  • Medicines, adult diapers and other supplies for the patient
  • Equipment rental — a hospital bed, wheelchair, oxygen concentrator
  • Clinical tasks on an attendant booking; those need the nurse tier

A qualified nurse costs more than an attendant, and longer blocks and overnights are staffed differently. Your exact total is confirmed by the Care Team on the call, before anything is scheduled.

What people actually book

Pick whichever is closest to your week. If the patient needs something clinical as well — a dressing, a tube feed, a catheter — say so and the visit is staffed with a qualified nurse instead.

Hygiene visit

A sponge bath, diaper change, shaving and nail cutting, done properly and without hurry. About two hours, and the visit families most often book first because it is the part that is hardest to keep doing alone.

₹448 · About 2 hours

Medical attendant, 3 hours

Turning, transfers, help to the bathroom, feeding, and company. Booked as respite so whoever has been doing all of it can sleep, eat, or leave the house for an afternoon.

₹548 · 3 hours

Attendant for a hospital trip, 5 hours

Getting the patient down the lift, into the car, through the corridors and the waiting and back home again. The part of an appointment that defeats most families, handled by someone who does it every week.

₹748 · 5 hours

Weekly check-in visit

Vitals recorded, the medicine box explained and refilled correctly, and a telemedicine consult with a doctor from the patient's own room. For a parent living alone, or living far from you.

₹448 · Weekly

An attendant is not a substitute for a doctor

If the patient is breathless, unresponsive, confused for the first time, bleeding, has chest pain or has had a fall with a suspected fracture, call an ambulance on 108 or get to a hospital. Bedside care is planned support between doctor visits, and booking a visit tomorrow is not a way to wait out something happening today.

How a booking works

01

Tell us the patient's day. Send the form with what the patient needs and how often. Our Care Team calls you back within 5 minutes and asks about the ordinary things — can they sit up, can they walk to the bathroom, is anyone turning them at night.

02

We tell you which tier you need. Attendant or qualified nurse, and how long a visit realistically has to be. This is the conversation that decides what you pay, and we would rather have it before the booking than argue about it after.

03

The same person, as far as we can. You are told who is coming before they arrive. We hold one person across a booking wherever the roster allows, because a patient who has to explain themselves to a new face every visit does worse.

Why families use an agency instead of a phone number

Verified, and someone to ring

Every attendant and nurse is police-verified with identity and qualification documents checked before a first placement. If someone does not turn up, you call an office and we send a replacement the same day — which is most of what you are buying over a neighbour's phone number.

We will tell you the cheaper answer

Plenty of families ring asking for a nurse and need an attendant, which costs less. The Care Team says so. Hygiene, turning, feeding, mobility and company are the attendant tier; a dressing, a feed through a tube, a catheter or a prescribed injection is where a qualified nurse becomes necessary.

No housework, said plainly

Our staff do not cook, clean or do the family's laundry. It is worth knowing before you book rather than on day one, and where households do mix the two it is always the patient care that quietly slips.

Questions, answered

Do I need an attendant or a nurse?
Hygiene, turning, transfers, feeding, mobility and company are the attendant tier, and it is the cheaper one. Anything clinical in an ordinary day — a dressing, a Ryle's or PEG feed, a catheter, an IV line, a prescribed injection — needs a qualified nurse. Describe the patient's day on the call and the Care Team will tell you which one you are actually buying, including when the answer is the cheaper one.
Will they cook, clean or do the laundry?
No. Hygiene, mobility, feeding, positioning, vitals, and on the nurse tier the clinical tasks. Household work is not something our staff are trained or insured for, and where families do mix the two, patient care is what slips. It is worth saying plainly before you book rather than discovering it on day one.
Can I book a single visit rather than a full day?
Yes, and most first bookings are exactly that. A hygiene visit is about two hours and starts at ₹448+; a medical attendant comes for a three- or five-hour block. Longer cover and overnights are staffed differently and quoted by the Care Team on the call rather than priced on this page.
Is it the same person each time?
We try to hold one person across a booking, because continuity matters more for an elderly or bedridden patient than almost anything else here. It is not a promise — people fall ill and take leave — but say on the call that it matters and it goes on the file rather than being left to the roster.
What if the attendant does not turn up?
Call us and we send someone else the same day. There is an office to ring, which is most of what you are buying over a neighbour's phone number.
Are the staff verified?
Every attendant and nurse is police-verified with their identity and qualification documents checked before their first placement. You are told who is coming before they arrive.
Can they come with us to a hospital appointment?
Yes — the five-hour medical attendant block is built for it. Getting someone down a lift, into a car, through a hospital corridor and back is the part families most often cannot manage alone, and it is a booking in its own right rather than a favour asked of a hygiene visit.
Is the price on this page the final price?
Visits start at ₹448+. What you pay depends on the length of the visit, the tier of staff and the time of day, and the Care Team confirms the exact total on the call before anything is scheduled. Nothing is charged before then.
