How much is a nurse for one visit?

Single visits for an injection or dressing are agreed case by case, based on the procedure, the distance and the time of day. Ongoing monthly care is typically Rs 45,000 to 90,000.

Why is a male nurse sometimes more expensive?

It is not always. When a male patient needs lifting, catheter or personal care, families ask for male nurses, and in some areas fewer are available, which can push the figure up.
