Pricing in JLT Cluster L

There is no single correct price for mother and baby care — there is a range, and where you land in it depends on scope and which vendor you pick. The app shows you that range up front.

Single nursing visit (injection, dressing change, suture removal)AED 100–250
12-hour day shift, registered nurseAED 600–1,200
24-hour cover, two nurses rotating, per dayAED 1,200–2,400
Mother and baby night nurse, per 12-hour nightAED 700–1,400
Monthly package, one 12-hour nursing shift dailyAED 12,000–25,000

These bands reflect typical jobs. Unusual scope gets quoted individually, still before you commit.

The licence behind the price: DHA, DoH and MOHAP tiers

The licence tier matters as much as the licence itself. A registered nurse has passed regulator exams and can legally handle medication administration, wound care, catheters and injections under a doctor's orders. An assistant nurse or licensed caregiver works at a lower tier — personal care, mobility, feeding, basic vitals — at a correspondingly lower rate. When two quotes differ by AED 300–500 per shift, the first thing to check is whether they are quoting the same tier at all.

Verification takes minutes and is free. In Dubai you can check any professional's licence number on the DHA's Sheryan portal; Abu Dhabi and MOHAP offer equivalent lookups. Ask for the licence number before you pay anything. A provider that hesitates to share it has answered your question.

Elderly care and mobility: doing the monthly maths before you commit

Continuity is worth paying a modest premium for. Elderly patients, especially those with dementia or limited mobility, do measurably better with a consistent face, and families spend less time re-explaining routines. Ask every provider two questions: who is the named backup when the primary nurse is off, and what is the replacement process if the match does not work. The answers separate organised providers from staffing brokers.

Budget separately for equipment, because it is a separate line. Hospital-bed rental, wheelchairs, hoists and pressure-relief mattresses are usually rented monthly rather than bundled into the nursing rate. Fall prevention — grab rails, night lighting, clearing rug hazards — costs a few hundred dirhams once and reduces the single biggest driver of emergency spending in elderly care, which is a fall.

Insurance: what gets reimbursed and what never will

The general rule across UAE health insurance: home nursing is covered when it is medically necessary, prescribed by a treating doctor, and pre-authorised by the insurer — most commonly as post-hospitalisation care for a defined number of days. Comprehensive plans often include such a benefit; basic and essential-benefit plans usually do not, or cap it tightly. Nationals may have additional home-care provisions under government schemes such as Thiqa in Abu Dhabi, which follow their own approval routes.

Process protects you more than policy wording does. Get pre-authorisation in writing before care starts, confirm whether the provider bills the insurer directly or you pay and claim, and keep the prescription, the care notes and itemised invoices. Retroactive claims for care that was never pre-approved are the most commonly rejected home-care claims in the UAE, and the rejection arrives after the money is spent.

Avoid these

Accepting one nurse for 24-hour cover

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.

Skipping the licence check because the provider looks professional

Polished branding is not a regulatory status. Checking a licence number against DHA's Sheryan portal or the DoH and MOHAP equivalents takes minutes and is the only proof that the person handling wounds and medications is qualified to. Every serious provider expects the question; hesitation to answer it is your answer.

Assuming insurance will reimburse after the fact

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.

Vetting

The point of vetting up front is that you are not doing the diligence yourself at the doorstep. Licence, insurance and identity are settled before booking opens.

Before you book

  • Get the diagnosis, discharge summary or doctor's care instructions in writing before requesting quotes — providers can only price accurately against real clinical information
  • Confirm which tier each quote covers: registered nurse, assistant nurse or caregiver — quotes across different tiers are not comparable
  • Nail down the backup arrangement: who covers the nurse's days off and sick days, and at what rate
  • For 24-hour care, confirm it is two rotating nurses with a written handover process between shifts
  • Prepare a care folder at home: prescriptions, medication schedule, doctor contacts and a running notes page for each visiting nurse

Frequently asked questions

What is the cost difference between a nurse and a caregiver?
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.
Are 12-hour shifts really the standard?
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.
Will my insurance pay for home nursing?
Only in a narrow band: care that is medically necessary, prescribed by a treating doctor, and pre-authorised by the insurer, most often for a set number of days after hospitalisation. Long-term elderly care and family-chosen newborn night nursing are almost never covered. Get pre-authorisation in writing before care starts — retroactive claims are the most commonly rejected.
How much does a newborn night nurse cost?
A licensed mother-and-baby nurse for a 12-hour overnight typically runs AED 700–1,400 per night, with multi-week packages bringing the effective rate down. Check the licence: a maternity nanny is a cheaper, non-clinical tier, and clinical tasks like jaundice observation and post-caesarean support belong with a nurse.
How far in advance should I arrange post-surgical care?
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.
