Nurse Jobs in Chennai

Home care nursing in Chennai

In Chennai, Doczo nurses visit homes in Adyar, Mylapore, T Nagar, Nungambakkam, Anna Nagar, Vadapalani, Porur, Velachery, and along OMR. A lot of the work follows a discharge from hospitals such as Apollo, MIOT, and Fortis Malar: post-surgical care, dressings, injections, and IV therapy that the treating doctor has prescribed.

Our in-house doctor supports Chennai nurses by video, and our care coordinators plan visits around each patient’s care plan and keep the family updated, including families who live outside India.
