Prices reflect the Dubai home nursing market as of June 2025. Rates vary by nurse seniority, care complexity, and location within Dubai.
Basic nursing tasks (vital signs, medication administration, wound dressing) cost significantly less than complex care (IV line management, catheter care, post-ICU monitoring). Always describe your specific needs when requesting a quote.
A registered nurse with DHA licensing commands higher rates than a healthcare assistant or caregiver. For medical procedures, always insist on a DHA-licensed registered nurse — not just a caregiver.
Daily or weekly packages cost less per hour than one-off visits. If you need nursing for more than 3 days, ask about package pricing — providers including AlloDoctor offer significant discounts for ongoing care plans.
Night shifts (10pm–6am) and weekend visits may carry a 20–30% premium over standard daytime rates.
