With several nurses and caregivers produced by top medical schools in the Philippines yearly, there is no wonder you can easily find a skilled hand ready to assist you.

There are many local agencies that provide long-term and short-term care services through dedicated, well-trained, and experienced nurses and caregivers. The cost of caregiver services range from Php 10,000 – 15,000 per month ($210-315) depending on the skill level and experience of the caregiver or nurse.

Home health care is a wide range of health care services that you can get at the comfort of your LANEBROOK home for an illness or injury. It is usually less expensive, more convenient, and just as effective as the care you get in a hospital or skilled nursing facility. Skilled home health services include wound care for pressure sores or a surgical wound, patient and caregiver education, intravenous or nutrition therapy, injections, and monitoring of serious illness and unstable health status. The goal of home health is to help you get better, regain your independence, and become as self-sufficient as possible. Examples of home health care in the Philippines include Home Health Care Inc.

You have the option to avail a doctor’s service outside of your health insurance with concierge medicine. This is a private form of practice where doctors charge you an out-of-pocket retainer fee for full access to their services. What you get for a monthly or annual fee is personalized service, including house calls, your doctor’s phone number, and quick responses to e-mails and SMS. Immunobooster is an example of clinics offering medical and surgical concierge services in the Philippines.
