In one paragraph

EzyHelpers places trained attendants and GNM or B.Sc nurses at home in Bangalore for eighteen categories of need: home nursing, injections, ICU step-down, respiratory and tracheostomy care, tube feeding, wound and catheter care, vitals monitoring, neurological, cardiac, diabetes and kidney, cancer, mother and baby, elderly care, physiotherapy, attendant services, mental health and medical equipment. Attendants are placed in three to seven days, nurse shifts in 48 hours, ICU and NICU step-down in 72 hours with the treating doctor’s written plan.

How to use this page

Find the term your doctor used, then open the page it points to.

Discharge summaries and prescriptions use clinical shorthand: SICU, PEG, Foley, SpO₂, GCS. Families rarely know which service those words translate into. This page is the translation our own coordinators use, checked by a registered nurse.

1

Look up the term

Each category lists the words as they appear on hospital paperwork, with a plain meaning where the term is not obvious.

2

Open the linked page

The link goes to the page for that need: what the caregiver does, which level of care fits, the warning signs, and the questions families ask.

3

Tell us the combination

Most patients have more than one need. The assessment call matches on the whole picture, not on one label.

Category 1 of 18

Home nursing

A GNM or B.Sc nurse at home for the clinical tasks a family cannot do: dressings, tubes, injections, monitoring. Elderly, bedridden and post-operative patients are the usual reasons families call.

Start here: Home nursing care in Bangalore

Category 2 of 18

Injections

Prescribed injections given at home by a nurse, on a visit or as part of a shift. The prescription is checked before the first dose and every dose is recorded.

Start here: Injections and vitals monitoring at home

Category 3 of 18

ICU care

ICU-trained nurses (BLS and ACLS) for patients stepping down from a medical, surgical or cardiac ICU to a home set-up, or for a short ICU-level stint at home. Care starts only with a written plan from the treating doctor, on 72 hours’ notice.

Start here: ICU nurse at home, short term

Category 4 of 18

Respiratory care

Airway and breathing support at home: tracheostomy care with suctioning, BiPAP and CPAP set-up, oxygen therapy and ventilator care, with the equipment on rent where needed.

Start here: Tracheostomy care at home

Category 5 of 18

Feeding care

Tube feeding for patients who cannot swallow safely: Ryle’s and NG tubes through the nose, PEG tubes through the stomach wall, feeding pumps, and the aspiration precautions that go with all of them.

Start here: Ryle’s tube and PEG feeding care

Category 6 of 18

Wound care

Nurse-led dressing of surgical wounds, pressure sores, diabetic ulcers and drains at home, with the wound photographed and logged so the treating doctor can see whether it is healing.

Start here: Wound care and dressing at home

Category 7 of 18

Catheter care

Foley catheter hygiene, bag management and scheduled changes by a nurse, and the daily care an attendant can be trained to do between changes. Urinary infection is the risk the routine is built around.

Start here: Catheter care at home

Category 8 of 18

Patient monitoring

Vitals recorded on one chart the doctor can read: blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse, temperature, blood sugar, and for higher-dependency patients a cardiac monitor and consciousness scoring.

Start here: Vitals monitoring at home

Category 9 of 18

Neurological care

Long-term care for conditions of the brain and nerves: stroke and paralysis, Alzheimer’s and other dementias, Parkinson’s, epilepsy, MS and motor neurone disease. Attendants for the daily routine, nurses where there are tubes, seizures or wounds.

Start here: Stroke care at home

Category 10 of 18

Cardiac care

Care after a heart attack, bypass, angioplasty or valve surgery, and long-term heart failure care: daily weight and blood pressure, salt and fluid limits, sternal precautions, and the antiplatelet tablets that must never be missed.

Start here: Heart failure care at home

Category 11 of 18

Diabetes and kidney

Insulin and blood sugar routines, diabetic foot checks, and for kidney patients the fluid limits, renal diet, fistula protection and dialysis escort that keep them out of hospital between sessions.

Start here: Diabetes care at home

Category 12 of 18

Cancer care

Support through treatment and after it: infection precautions during chemotherapy, recovery nursing after cancer surgery, symptom and pain management, and palliative and end-of-life care at home.

Start here: Cancer care at home

Category 13 of 18

Mother and baby

Nurses with newborn and NICU experience for the first weeks at home: preterm babies after NICU discharge, postnatal recovery for the mother, feeding support, and a nurse for a sick child. NICU step-down is on 72 hours’ notice.

Start here: Newborn and child nurse at home

Category 14 of 18

Elderly care

Attendants and companions for older adults: bathing, meals, medicines, mobility help, fall prevention and company, by the day or living in, with dementia-experienced caregivers where memory is failing.

Start here: Elder care at home

Category 15 of 18

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapists who visit, and attendants who carry out the prescribed exercises on the days in between: post-stroke and neuro rehab, orthopaedic and post-surgical recovery, chest physiotherapy and mobility work for older adults.

Start here: Physiotherapy at home

Category 16 of 18

Caregiver services

Trained, non-medical attendants for the daily work of care: bathing, feeding, toileting, repositioning and company, at home or as a bystander at the hospital bedside. We say plainly when a need is beyond attendant level.

Start here: Home attendant services

Category 17 of 18

Mental health

Psychiatric-experienced nurses and attendants for serious mental illness and dementia-related behaviour, under the treating psychiatrist’s plan, plus counselling for older adults. Consent-based care, never restraint.

Start here: Psychiatric nursing at home

Category 18 of 18

Equipment

Hospital beds, oxygen concentrators, BiPAP and CPAP machines, suction machines, cardiac monitors, infusion pumps and wheelchairs on rent in Bangalore, delivered and set up, with the caregiver trained on each.

Start here: Medical equipment rental

How a match is made

Three real combinations, and who we would send.

These are the worked examples our coordinators train on. The point is that the placement follows from the combination of needs, not from the diagnosis on its own.

  • Tracheostomy
  • Suctioning
  • ICU nurse

ICU-trained nurse at home, 12-hour shifts

A tracheostomy that needs regular suctioning is nursing work, and an ICU background is what makes the nurse comfortable with airway emergencies. Booked on 72 hours’ notice with the treating doctor’s written plan.

Open the service page
  • Stroke
  • Bedridden
  • Feeding
  • 24 hours

Live-in trained attendant, nurse visits for the tube

Turning, transfers, hygiene and prescribed exercises are attendant work around the clock. If feeding is by Ryle’s tube, a nurse handles tube changes and the attendant is trained on the feeds.

Open the service page
  • Elderly
  • Dementia
  • Female caregiver
  • Day shift

Dementia-experienced female attendant, day shift

Routine, patience and redirection matter more than clinical skill here. We match on dementia experience and on the family’s gender preference, with the family home overnight.

Who checked this

The categories and terms on this page are the ones EzyHelpers care coordinators use to match a patient with a caregiver or nurse. They were verified by Nalina Shanthi, Registered Nurse (Karnataka Nursing Council), and the mapping to each service page was reviewed with her. Clinical oversight of the care division sits with Sister Mary George, B.Sc Nursing, Care Director.

This page describes services, not medical advice. Diagnosis and treatment decisions stay with the treating doctor; our caregivers work to that doctor’s plan.
