What a home nurse can help with
- Checking vital signs such as blood pressure, temperature and oxygen level.
- Helping with prescribed medicines, including injections.
- Changing dressings and caring for wounds, including after surgery.
- Helping you move around safely, and supervising a catheter or IV line.
- Support with a long-term condition, and short or longer hourly visits for general care.
The nurse should review what you need when they arrive. If a task needs a doctor, or is beyond what the nurse can safely do at home, they should tell you and help you get the right care.
What DHA asks of care given at home
DHA’s Standards for Home Healthcare Services apply to nursing at home. Among other things, they say:
- Home healthcare is offered to patients referred by a physician, and a qualified physician must assess the patient face to face before services take place.
- A care plan is developed with the treating physician.
- Signed consent is needed before services begin. If a patient is under 18 or not oriented, a relative gives it.
- Doctors’ orders are signed and kept in the patient’s health record.
Ask the provider how these rules apply to your booking. You can look up the facility and the nurse in the free Dubai Medical Registry.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep ID for the patient to hand.
- Have any prescriptions, discharge notes and medicines ready.
- Write down what you need help with, so nothing gets missed.
- Tell the provider about allergies and anything that has changed since the last doctor’s visit.
Call 998 for chest pain, trouble breathing, heavy bleeding, sudden confusion or signs of a stroke. Do not wait for a nurse visit.
