ICU-Level Care Without Leaving Home
Critical care at home is a medically supervised program that delivers intensive clinical support to seriously ill patients in a home setting. This is ideal for patients who are clinically stable enough to leave the ICU but still require close monitoring, ventilator support, or complex nursing interventions.
Our critical care team includes nurses with ICU experience, trained in life support protocols (BCLS/ACLS), capable of managing ventilators, tracheostomy tubes, central lines, and hemodynamic monitoring equipment. We coordinate with your treating physician at every step.

When Is Critical Care at Home Appropriate?
Critical care at home is suitable for patients on long-term ventilator support who are hemodynamically stable, end-of-life patients who wish to spend their final days at home with family, post-ICU patients re-admitted frequently due to recurring complications, and patients with advanced neurological conditions requiring complex nursing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can an ICU patient really be managed at home in Kolkata?
Yes — with the right equipment and nursing team in place, many critically ill patients who are hemodynamically stable can receive ICU-level care at home. This is known as "Hospital at Home" and is an internationally proven model that reduces hospital-acquired infections while maintaining clinical outcomes.
What equipment is needed for critical care at home?
Depending on the patient's condition, equipment may include a ventilator or BIPAP machine, oxygen concentrators, cardiac monitors, suction machines, infusion pumps, hospital beds with air mattresses, and pulse oximeters. We can arrange all of this on rent.
What nurse-to-patient ratio do you maintain for critical care?
For ventilated and critically ill patients, we maintain a 1:1 nurse-to-patient ratio with a dedicated critical care trained nurse present at all times. Shift handovers are supervised to ensure continuity.
Is tracheostomy care available at home?
Yes. Our critical care nurses are trained in tracheostomy tube management, inner cannula cleaning and replacement, suctioning, and monitoring for complications like tube displacement or infection.
How do you handle medical emergencies during home critical care?
We have a structured emergency escalation protocol. Our nurses are trained in BCLS/ACLS. In the event of a deterioration, we coordinate immediately with the patient's treating physician and arrange rapid ambulance transfer if required.
