Aayan Home Nursing Services sends trained nurses and caretakers to homes in Udupi, Manipal, Malpe, Kaup and nearby towns. Care is arranged from our Kunjibettu branch: a coordinator visits the patient for free, reads what the doctor has advised and matches the right person to the right hours. Staff usually start within 24 to 48 hours of that visit.
Aayan has provided home nursing since 2015. To talk it through, call +91 73495 13467.

Nurse and Caretaker Levels
The staff type depends on what the patient needs, and the coordinator recommends it at the home visit.
These are starting prices for nursing and caretaker care in Udupi. The final rate depends on the patient's condition, the care needed and the hours required.

Care After Discharge from Manipal Hospitals
If you know the discharge date, call us beforehand. The nurse reads the discharge summary with the family, sets up the medicine schedule and keeps a daily log the doctor can review at the next visit.
Kasturba Hospital, Manipal
The nurse works from the discharge summary and review dates issued by the hospital, and keeps the follow-up calendar where the family can see it.
KMC Manipal
For patients treated at KMC Manipal, the nurse keeps a running log of readings and symptoms so the consultant can read the week at the next visit.
