Why this care exists
Discharge is a strange feeling. The hospital hands you a sheaf of papers, a discharge summary, and a number to call if something goes wrong — and then your parent or partner is suddenly home, where there are no monitors, no buzzer, and no nurse two doors away.
Patient care attendants bridge that gap. They are not nurses, but they are trained in the practical, hourly things that recovery needs — vitals tracking, feeding, hygiene, repositioning, watching for the small changes that matter. They work under the supervision of qualified nurses and our clinical care managers.
In Bangalore, we frequently work alongside Manipal, Apollo, Sakra, Fortis and Narayana hospital teams to take patients home with continuity of care intact.

How we match you
The match is the work.
For patient care, we read the discharge summary before assigning. We match by procedure type (cardiac, ortho, oncology), language, gender preference and the patient’s mobility level. For complex post-discharge cases we recommend pairing the attendant with a part-time home nurse for the first week.

“Appa came home the day after his bypass. The attendant was there before us — already briefed by the surgeon’s team — and walked us through every vitals reading for the first 48 hours. That night was the first I slept in a week.”

What families tell us
Words from the families we’ve walked beside.
“We needed someone for Amma right after her hip surgery. Within 5 hours, Lakshmi was at our door — calm, kind, and so good with my mother. Three months in, we don’t know what we’d do without her.”
Anjali R.
Daughter · Indiranagar
“I’m in Singapore, my parents are in Whitefield. The team gave me daily updates, photos, even small things — when Appa refused breakfast, when his BP dipped. Real peace of mind.”
Karthik V.
Son (NRI) · Whitefield
“We had tried two agencies before. The difference here is the human touch — supervisor visits, gentle handling of my mother-in-law’s dementia, no pressure to upgrade plans.”

“Booked a night caregiver for my dad after his stroke. The transparent pricing and the WhatsApp updates from the caregiver every morning — that’s what won my trust.”

Frequently asked
The things families want to know.
Are your patient care attendants medically trained?
Yes — 80+ hours of training including supervised hospital exposure, focused on vitals, feeding, hygiene, escalation protocols and infection control. For procedures that need a registered nurse (IV, injections), we deploy our home nursing tier.
Can you start the day of hospital discharge?
Yes. With 12–24 hours notice we place the caregiver at your home or at the hospital ward to ride along during discharge. We also coordinate ambulance partners if you need transport.
Will the caregiver coordinate with our doctor?
Daily care logs (vitals, intake, output, sleep, mood) are shared with the family. With your permission, we’ll share these directly with the treating doctor’s clinic before each follow-up.
Can we reduce hours as the patient recovers?
Of course. Many families start with 24×7, then taper to 12-hour, then to hourly visits as recovery progresses. We adjust without re-onboarding fees.
What if there’s a sudden complication?
Our attendants are trained on a clear escalation tree — family contact first, then our 24×7 care manager, then ambulance partner. Each home gets a printed action card on day one.
Do you deal with insurance / TPA paperwork?
We don’t bill insurance directly, but we provide itemised invoices with clinical care manager sign-off, which several home-care insurance plans accept for reimbursement.
