If you need nursing in Burj Views, the useful question isn't who is cheapest — it's who is available, licensed, and priced transparently. tamam answers all three in one screen.
Anyone who has arranged nursing in Burj Views knows the friction isn't the work itself — it's coordination. Vendors familiar with the area cut that down considerably.
Demand here is high, so slots move quickly — booking a day ahead usually gets you the window you actually want. Budget roughly 1–12 hours on site for elderly care, plus a little for access if the building has a lift protocol.

Get it on your phoneBook via WhatsAppHome nursing pricing in the UAE looks chaotic until you see the five levers underneath it: the licence category of the person providing care, the clinical complexity of the patient, the length and pattern of the shifts, how long you commit for, and how far the nurse has to travel. Move any one of those and the quote moves with it. A registered nurse doing overnight post-surgical care in Fujairah is a fundamentally different purchase from a caregiver doing daytime mobility support in Deira, even though both get filed under 'home nursing'.
The discipline that saves the most money is total-cost thinking. Do not ask 'what does a nurse cost per hour'. Ask 'what will six weeks of recovery cost under plan A versus plan B, including consumables, backup cover and the risk of a hospital readmission if care is too thin'. Everything in this guide flows from that question.
Matching the tier to the task is the single largest saving available in home care, and the single most common mistake. Tier one is the registered nurse: medication administration, injections, wound dressing, catheter and stoma care, post-operative monitoring, tube feeding. Tier two is the assistant nurse or licensed caregiver: bathing, dressing, toileting, transfers, feeding assistance, basic vital signs, companionship with clinical awareness. Tier three is a non-clinical aide or companion, appropriate only where there is no medical task at all.
The price gap between tiers is substantial. A caregiver's 12-hour shift commonly runs AED 350–700 against AED 600–1,200 for a registered nurse. Over a month of daily shifts that difference compounds into thousands of dirhams. If your father needs help getting to the bathroom safely and reminders to take pills he can swallow himself, you likely need tier two — with a weekly registered-nurse visit layered on top for clinical checks, which costs far less than staffing tier one around the clock.
Be precise about what you are hiring. A licensed nurse can do the clinical parts of the fourth trimester — observing for newborn jaundice, cord care, feeding assessment, safe-sleep setup, and supporting a mother recovering from a caesarean. A maternity nanny or confinement carer, however experienced, is a different and cheaper tier without a clinical licence. Both have their place; paying nurse rates for nanny work, or expecting clinical judgement from a nanny, are both mismatches.
Know the medical boundaries before you need them. Any fever in a baby under three months, poor feeding with reduced wet nappies, laboured breathing or unusual drowsiness is a see-a-doctor-now situation, not something a night nurse manages at home. A good mother-and-baby nurse will say exactly that, and her willingness to escalate is part of what you are paying for.

The honest answer on cost is a range, not a figure. For elderly care the typical band is AED 80–200 per hour, and you see each vendor's position in it before committing.
| what | typical range |
|---|---|
| Hourly nursing, short blocks (3–4 hour minimum typical) | AED 80–200 per hour |
| 12-hour night shift, registered nurse | AED 700–1,300 |
| 12-hour shift, licensed caregiver or assistant nurse | AED 350–700 |
You will see each vendor's price against your job description, then decide. No commitment until then.
Every vendor on tamam has a verified trade licence with the relevant municipality, checked insurance, and technicians who are ID-tagged in the app.
If the real needs are bathing, mobility, meals and companionship, a licensed caregiver at AED 350–700 per shift covers them safely. Staffing that role with a registered nurse at AED 600–1,200 wastes thousands of dirhams a month. Buy the nurse tier for clinical tasks and layer in periodic nurse visits for checks instead.
A single person cannot safely provide round-the-clock care, and quotes built that way signal a provider willing to cut corners. Proper 24-hour arrangements are two rotating 12-hour shifts with written handovers. If the budget cannot stretch to two nurses, reduce the hours honestly rather than pretending one exhausted carer equals continuous care.
Home nursing claims fail most often because care started before pre-authorisation existed. Insurers cover prescribed, pre-approved, medically necessary care — not arrangements the family made independently and submitted later. Get approval in writing first, or budget the care as out-of-pocket from the start and treat any reimbursement as a bonus.
A registered nurse typically costs AED 80–200 per hour or AED 600–1,200 for a 12-hour shift, while a licensed caregiver's shift commonly runs AED 350–700. The caregiver tier covers bathing, mobility, feeding and basic vitals; anything involving medication administration, injections or wound care legally requires the nurse tier. Matching the tier to the actual task is the biggest saving available.
Rarely as an hourly booking — most providers set a three-to-four-hour minimum because travel time makes shorter blocks uneconomic. For a single clinical task like an injection or dressing change, ask for per-visit pricing instead, typically AED 100–250, which is designed for exactly that situation.
Yes — the market runs on 8am-to-8pm and 8pm-to-8am shifts mirroring hospital rosters, and shift pricing is meaningfully cheaper per hour than short blocks. True 24-hour cover means two nurses rotating; a provider offering one nurse around the clock is proposing something unsafe and should be dropped from your shortlist.
Start while the patient is still in hospital, ideally three to seven days before discharge. The discharge summary and medication plan are exactly what providers need to quote accurately, and booking early lets you compare two or three providers instead of accepting whoever can start tonight. Allow extra lead time in Al Ain, Ras Al Khaimah and the east coast, where clinical pools are thinner.
Chest pain, breathing difficulty, uncontrolled bleeding, sudden weakness or slurred speech, seizures, significant head injury, or any fever in a baby under three months mean emergency care — call 998 or go to an emergency department. Home nursing supports recovery under a doctor's plan; it is not a route to diagnosis and it is never the right response to an emergency.
