Why charges vary so much
Home nurse and caretaker charges in India depend on the city, whether the person is a qualified nurse or a trained attendant, the hours involved (day, night, or 24-hour live-in), and the kind of support needed. Well Story does not set or confirm prices, so treat any figure you are quoted as specific to that provider.
Nurse, attendant, or companion?
A registered nurse can carry out clinical tasks; an attendant or caretaker typically helps with daily routines; a companion offers company and light help. Ask which role you are actually being offered, and verify nursing qualifications directly.
Questions to ask about fees
Request a written breakdown in INR: daily or monthly rate, shift length, replacement arrangements if the carer is unavailable, agency or registration fees, deposits, food and stay for live-in carers, and notice or cancellation terms.
Before you decide
Compare a few written quotes, ask for references, and involve your loved one in choosing. For medical needs, ask a qualified healthcare professional what level of support is appropriate.
