Nursing Care Services
Our nursing care services cover a wide range of needs, this includes:
- Help with medications: Our nurses can assist with medication management, ensuring you take the right medications at the right times. We can also help you understand your prescriptions and manage any side effects.
- Blood pressure checks: Monitoring your blood pressure is essential for maintaining health. Our nurses can check your blood pressure regularly and provide guidance on maintaining healthy levels.
- Wounds and stoma care: Whether it's post-surgery wounds or stoma care, our nurses are trained to handle dressing changes, cleaning, and monitoring for infection, ensuring optimal healing and comfort.
- Post-surgery support: Recovering from surgery can be challenging. Our nurses can help with pain management, mobility support, and rehabilitation exercises, aiding your recovery process.
- Post-hospital discharge support: Transitioning from hospital to home can be overwhelming. We offer post-hospital discharge support to ensure a smooth transition and reduce the risk of readmission.
- Chronic health management plans (e.g. Diabetes, COPD, cancer and heart disease, etc): Managing chronic conditions like diabetes, COPD, cancer, or heart disease requires consistent care. Our nurses can create personalised management plans to help you stay on track and improve your quality of life.
