Nursing at home
Private nurse home visit
A registered nurse visits for planned nursing care.
From £95
This is not an emergency service. If someone has chest pain, stroke signs, severe breathing difficulty, heavy bleeding or collapse, call 999 or go to A&E. We work alongside the NHS, not instead of it.
About this service
A private nurse visit is planned nursing care in the home: observations, injections, dressings, catheter checks, and the practical jobs that keep someone safe after illness. The nurse works to a plan and can escalate to our GP or to NHS services if the picture changes.
Is this right for me?
- Planned nursing that the NHS cannot time as you need
- Families wanting a named nurse for a few weeks after discharge
- Support between GP visits

From-price for a standard nurse visit. Complex or longer visits are quoted first.
After your visit
Follow-up visits can be booked as a short package rather than one-offs, which is usually kinder and cheaper for families.
Where we cover
Home visits across Lurgan, Craigavon, Portadown and Banbridge as core cover, with Lisburn, Armagh, Dungannon and Belfast arranged with a travel note. Call with a postcode and we will confirm. A family member can book if the patient consents to be seen.
FAQs
Is a private nurse a replacement for district nurses?
No. We work alongside NHS district nursing. If you already have a district nurse, tell us so we do not duplicate or confuse the plan.
