FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a 24 hour elder care at home cost in Chennai?
At Companions, a 24-hour live-in arrangement costs ₹1,450 per day — all prices inclusive of GST. Home nursing services for medical needs such as wound care, catheter management, or BiPAP support start from ₹1,550 for a 24-hour shift. There are no hidden charges, and meals for live-in caregivers can be provided by the family or arranged for an additional ₹300 per day.
What is the monthly cost of a 24 hour caregiver in Chennai?
A 24-hour live-in caregiver from Companions costs ₹1,450 per day, which works out to approximately ₹43,500 per month (inclusive of GST). This covers all personal care tasks, round-the-clock companionship, mobility assistance, and overnight supervision. For families requiring a qualified home nurse for medical support, the 24-hour nursing rate starts at ₹1,550 per day (basic nursing), going up to ₹2,300 per day for complex cases such as tracheostomy care.
Is home care cheaper than putting an elderly parent in a nursing home or old-age home in Chennai?
In most cases, yes. A professional old age home in Chennai typically charges between ₹20,000 and ₹60,000 per month for residential care, often without one-on-one attention. Home care with Companions starts at around ₹27,000 per month for a 11-hour daily caregiver, and the elder stays in their own home—maintaining familiarity, independence, and emotional well-being. Home care also allows families to customise the level of support rather than paying for services that may not be needed.
How are Companions 24 hour caregivers verified and background-checked?
Every caregiver at Companions undergoes a multi-step verification process before being deployed. This includes police background verification, Aadhaar and PAN identity verification, address verification, previous employment reference checks (minimum two references), and criminal record screening. Caregivers also complete a mandatory elder care training programme and are certified in first aid and CPR. Only verified and trained caregivers are matched with families — no freelancers, no unscreened staff.
Is it safe to let a Live-In caregiver into my home in Chennai?
Companion caregivers are police-verified, identity-verified, and trained before deployment. Families also have full transparency—Companions shares the caregiver's profile and documents before the first shift begins. During care, families can request daily or weekly update reports and use video calls during care hours to check on their loved one. If a family is not satisfied with a caregiver for any reason, Companions guarantees a replacement within 48 to 72 hours at no extra charge.
What is the difference between a 24 hour caregiver and a Live-In home nurse?
A caregiver (also called an attendant or companion) provides non-medical daily living support—bathing, feeding, mobility assistance, toileting, companionship, and medication reminders. They do not perform medical procedures. A home nurse is a medically qualified professional (GNM or ANM certified) who handles clinical tasks such as administering injections, wound dressing changes, catheter care, tube feeding management, vitals monitoring, and post-surgical recovery support. Companions offers both. For most elderly parents who are mobile but need daily help, a caregiver is sufficient. For bedridden patients or those recovering from surgery, a home nurse is recommended.
What does a 24 hour elder care service at home actually include?
Companions' elder care service in Chennai covers five main areas:
-
Personal care (bathing, grooming, oral hygiene, diaper changes
-
Mobility assistance (transfers, position changes, range-of-motion exercises)
-
Feeding and nutrition support (meal prep, feeding assistance, hydration monitoring, diabetic or kidney diet management)
-
Medical support for nursing cases (medication administration, vital signs monitoring, wound care, and catheter management)
-
Comfort care (comfortable positioning, sleep support, and light massage).
Every care plan is personalised based on the elder's specific condition and family preferences.
How quickly can Companions arrange a 24 hour caregiver in Chennai?
In most cases, Companions can arrange and deploy a 24 hour caregiver within 24 to 48 hours of inquiry. For urgent situations—such as a post-hospital discharge or a family emergency—the team works to expedite the process and match a suitable caregiver as quickly as possible. To start, families simply fill out the inquiry form, receive a call from a care advisor, and have a personalised care plan and caregiver match arranged. Care can begin as soon as the same day in some cases, depending on the caregiver pool available for your area.
Can I arrange 24 hours elder care at home immediately after my parent is discharged from the hospital in Chennai?
Yes. Post-discharge 24 hours home care is one of the most common requests Companions receives. The team can coordinate with the hospital or family to understand the discharge instructions and medical requirements, then match the right caregiver or home nurse accordingly. For patients discharged with wounds, catheters, feeding tubes, or respiratory support equipment, a qualified home nurse is deployed. Families are encouraged to contact Companions even before the discharge date to allow time for proper caregiver matching.
Does Companions provide 24 hours care for elderly patients with dementia or Alzheimer's in Chennai?
Yes. Companions has caregivers specifically trained in dementia and Alzheimer's care. This includes cognitive stimulation activities, management of behavioural changes, fall prevention, safe mobility support, and structured daily routines—all of which are important for patients with memory conditions. The caregivers are trained to respond with patience and calm to confusion, agitation, or sundowning (evening restlessness), which is common in dementia patients. A home nurse can also be co-deployed for families where the dementia patient has co-existing medical conditions.
Can Companions provide care for a 24 hour bedridden or paralysed elderly patient at home in Chennai?
Yes. Companions handles 24 hours bedridden and post-stroke patient care routinely. This includes regular position changes every two hours to prevent pressure sores, bed bath and hygiene support, passive range-of-motion exercises, feeding and hydration assistance, catheter and tube management (for nursing cases), and vital signs monitoring. For bedridden patients, Companions typically recommends a 11-hour or 24-hour nursing arrangement to ensure round-the-clock clinical monitoring and safety. The 48- to 72-hour replacement guarantee also applies—so care continuity is never compromised.
What happens if I'm not happy with the 24 hour caregiver provided by Companions?
Companions offers a 48 to 72-hour replacement guarantee. If a family is not satisfied with the assigned caregiver for any reason — whether it is a personality mismatch, skill concern, or communication issue — the team will identify and deploy a replacement caregiver within that window. There is no penalty or additional charge for requesting a replacement. Companions maintains a pool of backup caregivers specifically to ensure service continuity for all active families.
I live abroad. Can I arrange 24 hour elder care for my parents in Chennai through Companions?
Yes, Companions regularly works with NRI families and working professionals who need care arranged for elderly parents from a distance. The entire process can be handled remotely — inquiry, care plan discussion, and caregiver matching are all done over WhatsApp, phone, or video call. Once care begins, families receive regular updates and have the option to video call during care hours. The care manager at Companions acts as the single point of contact, coordinating everything so that families abroad have full peace of mind without needing to be physically present in Chennai.
