Wound care at home in Dubai, a clean dressing change in your own bed.
Wound care at home in Dubai: a DHA-licensed nurse changes the dressing on a surgical cut, daily or every other day. She photographs the wound for your surgeon, packs the old dressing out, and takes the stitches or staples out at the end. The same nurse looks after bedsores for an older parent who is mostly in bed.
Pick what you need help with.
Same nursing team, one file. One dressing change, a daily run, or a longer plan.
WoundWound care & dressing at home
Clean dressing changes for a surgical cut, daily or alternate days, with photos to your surgeon. Stitches out at the end.
One visitOne-off nurse visit
Injections, dressings, drips, blood draws, vitals. A nurse comes once, does it, and goes.
After surgeryCare after surgery
A surgical nurse from the morning after discharge, wound, drains, medicines, daily report to your surgeon.
Older parentsElderly care at home
A trained Care Companion (CNA + BLS, a carer, not a nurse) for the day. A DHA-licensed nurse does the dressings.
What kind of wound?
When a nurse can dress it at home, and when a doctor needs to see it.
A clean, closing wound is easy to look after at home. A wound going the wrong way needs a doctor the same day.
- A surgical cut that needs a clean dressing change, daily or every other day
- Stitches or staples due out
- A wound or drain your surgeon wants photographed and reported
- A bedsore on an older parent who spends most of the day in bed
- A wound you cannot reach, see or keep dry yourself
- Redness spreading out from the wound, or hot skin around it
- Pus, a bad smell, or much more fluid than yesterday
- Fever, shivering, or feeling unwell with the wound
- The wound has opened up, go back to your surgeon or hospital
- Heavy bleeding, trouble breathing or sudden chest pain, call 998

Questions.
Anything else, WhatsApp us. We reply in about three minutes.
How much does wound care at home cost?
AED 250 for a one-off visit of up to 90 minutes. A five-visit pack is AED 1,100, used within six months. A daily run through a surgical week goes on a post-op plan from AED 100 an hour, four-hour minimum a day. Dressings are itemised at cost and there is a small night surcharge after 10pm.
Will you send photos to my surgeon?
Yes. The nurse photographs the wound at every change and a short report goes to your surgeon. If something looks off she calls them herself, and our on-call doctor is one message away.
Can the nurse take my stitches out?
Yes. Stitches or staples come out at home at the end of the course, and the nurse looks at the wound while she is there. It can be booked as a single visit.
When should I call a doctor instead of booking a dressing?
If the redness is spreading out from the wound, there is pus or a bad smell, you have a fever, or the wound has opened up. Those need a doctor the same day, not a new dressing. Heavy bleeding, trouble breathing or sudden chest pain: call 998.
Does insurance pay?
No. Home care in the UAE is paid by you directly. We confirm the price in writing before we start.
