Are home nurses in Chennai qualified and registered?

For clinical procedures such as injections, IV therapy, catheter or tube care, and prescribed wound protocols, we follow documented medical guidance. Keep your treating physician’s prescription or hospital discharge summary ready if you have one; if you need clinical support, Doczo can also connect you with our own doctor support to guide care safely.
Do you provide doctor support in Chennai?
Yes. Home nursing includes Doczo doctor support from our in-house general physician, Dr. Nabeel Ameen — he can review prescriptions or discharge notes, guide clinical decisions, and advise your nurse when something needs escalation via video consultation. In-person doctor home visits are currently available in Trivandrum; for Chennai, book a video consult and we coordinate with your treating physician so care stays aligned.
Do you provide post-surgery nursing care at home?
Yes. After orthopaedic, abdominal, cardiac, or gynaecological surgery, our nurses support wound and drain care, medication administration, vitals monitoring, and early escalation if fever, swelling, or unusual pain appears. Care follows your surgeon’s plan, with Doczo doctor support available when you need clinical guidance at home.
Can I book injections or wound dressing at home?
Yes. Families regularly book one-time or recurring nurse visits for intramuscular and subcutaneous injections, vitamin B12, antibiotics, anticoagulants, and sterile wound dressing for surgical sites, diabetic ulcers, and pressure sores.
Do you offer catheter, IV, or Ryles tube care at home?

Can I request a female or male nurse?
Yes. You can request a female or male nurse based on patient comfort and preference. We’ll match availability as closely as possible when you book.
Do you provide a live-in caregiver in Chennai?
For round-the-clock or live-in support, share the patient’s care needs with us and we can provide a trusted reference for a live-in caregiver in your area. Many families also combine our nursing visits with daily elder-care check-ins for medication reminders, mobility help, and wellness support — tell us what you need and we’ll guide the right option.
