Home care FAQs
How much do home care services in Dubai cost?+
Home doctor visits start from AED 500, home nurse visits from AED 350 per visit, and IV therapy from AED 500. Ongoing elderly care packages are quoted monthly. We provide insurance-ready invoices.
Is home care covered by insurance in Dubai?+
Most international and premium UAE plans (Daman, ADNIC, Cigna, Allianz, AXA, Bupa Global) reimburse home healthcare when medically indicated. We issue fully coded invoices for reimbursement.
Do you offer 24-hour home care in Dubai?+
Yes. Our homecare team is on call 24/7 for urgent doctor and nursing needs. Routine visits are scheduled across the day, 7 days a week.
Which areas of Dubai do you cover?+
All of Dubai — Business Bay, Downtown, Marina, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Jumeirah, Emirates Hills, Arabian Ranches, Dubai Hills, JVC, DIFC, Mirdif, and more.
What's the difference between a home doctor and home nurse?+
A home doctor diagnoses, prescribes and creates a treatment plan. A home nurse delivers ongoing care — injections, wound dressing, IV setup, vitals monitoring — under doctor supervision. Many patients need both, working as one team.
Can you provide live-in nursing care for an elderly parent?+
Yes — we arrange short-term and live-in nursing for elderly, post-surgery and palliative patients, with a named family medicine consultant overseeing the care plan.
Are your nurses and doctors DHA-licensed?+
Every clinician on our team is DHA-licensed and credentialled. We follow Dubai Health Authority standards for clinical governance, medication safety and patient privacy.
How do I book home care for a relative who isn't with me?+
You can book on someone else's behalf — call us or WhatsApp with their location, contact and a brief description of needs. Our coordinator will arrange the visit and keep you updated.
What to look for in a home healthcare provider in Dubai
Home healthcare is a category with wide variation in quality. Use these criteria to compare any provider — regardless of who is offering it.
- 01
GP-led clinical governance
A named family-medicine consultant should sit at the top of the care plan — not a nurse coordinator or a call-centre. Governance is where safety lives.
- 02
DHA licensing at every level
Individual practitioner licences for every doctor and nurse — not just a company facility licence. Ask for licence numbers.
- 03
One integrated medical record
Doctor visits, nurse notes, bloods and prescriptions should live in the same record — accessed by any clinician who sees you.
- 04
Real continuity
The same named GP and, where possible, the same nurse. Continuity is the single biggest driver of better outcomes.
- 05
24/7 clinical escalation
Not just a WhatsApp number — a doctor available to take a call at 3am when a family member is unwell.
- 06
Insurance-fluent invoicing
ICD-coded documentation designed for reimbursement, plus experience navigating Cigna, Bupa, AXA, Allianz and Daman.
The Aafiyah standard for home healthcare in Dubai
We built home healthcare the way the UK builds NHS primary care — one team, one record, one named GP responsible for the whole picture. The doctor visits, the nurse continues, the bloods come back to the same person. That is what continuity means.
GP-supervised
Every visit — doctor, nurse, IV, blood test — sits inside a GP-led care plan.
One record
Consultations, home visits, nursing notes and lab results live in a single medical file.
Named continuity
The same family-medicine consultant year-round, not a rotating cast.
British standards
GMC-registered doctors, MRCGP-qualified — NHS-trained, delivered in Dubai.
24/7 team
Coordinator on WhatsApp day and night; GP callback in minutes.
Insurance-ready
ICD-coded invoicing built for international insurer reimbursement.

"Called at 8am with a fever, had a British-trained doctor at my door by 11. He sat with me for 45 minutes — not the 5 minutes I'm used to. Prescription delivered same day. Felt like having a proper GP again."
"We finally have one doctor who knows all of us. The kids actually like going. Follow-up calls happen without us chasing. Worth every dirham."
"The 40+ marker report came back with a real conversation, not a PDF dumped in my inbox. Caught a vitamin deficiency I'd been ignoring for years."
"After surgery I dreaded going back to a hospital for dressings. Their nurse came every other day, the doctor checked in by WhatsApp. Healed faster than I expected."
"Fell ill on day two of our trip. Doctor in the suite within 90 minutes, full assessment, prescription to the hotel pharmacy. Genuinely NHS-standard care in Dubai."
"My father refuses to leave the house. Aafiyah's team comes monthly, manages his medication, and treats him with such dignity. It changed everything for our family."
