In one paragraph
Cancer home care in Bangalore needs caregivers familiar with treatment cycles, fatigue, infection risk, and the emotional weight families carry. We place oncology-experienced caretakers (₹22,000–₹30,000/month) and coordinate visiting nurses for port care. Chemotherapy itself is administered only by licensed oncology nurses or in hospital.
Phases of care
Active treatment, recovery between cycles, long-term maintenance, and palliative — different needs, different placements.
Symptom watch, hydration, nutrition through nausea, port and PICC line oversight (with visiting nurse), infection prevention, fatigue management, transport to and from cycles.
Energy rebuild, gentle activity, nutrition support, mood watch, follow-up coordination. Patients often need more help here than they expect.
Ongoing routine, energy management, follow-up scan support, return-to-work transition. Some families step care down; others maintain part-time companionship for years.
When the focus shifts to comfort and dignity, our trained attendants and palliative-experienced caregivers provide patient-centred care with sensitivity for the patient and family.
What we cover
Texture-modified meals during mucositis, hydration discipline, small frequent feeds, food-safety strict during low-counts periods.
Strict hand hygiene, masks during low immunity, careful food prep, daily temperature monitoring. Fever > 100.4°F is an emergency.
Driving to and from chemo cycles, transport coordination, accompaniment for blood tests and scans, helping the family track the calendar.
Cancer fatigue is profound and often under-treated. Caregivers help structure rest, gentle activity, and the small dignities that matter on bad days.
Daily observation for redness or discharge, dressing care between nurse visits, escalation if anything looks wrong — minor complications caught early.
Cancer is isolating. A caregiver who reads, sits, listens, and is gently present makes the months between scans feel less heavy.
