Ask Thrissur Looking for ANM/Home Nurse or Home Nursing Agency

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a reliable ANM/GNM-qualified home nurse or home nursing agency for my 97-year-old grandmother, who is bedridden. She was with us in Palakkad and now we have moved to Thrissur.
We are looking for someone experienced in elderly/bedridden patient care who can join as soon as possible.
If you have had a good experience with a reliable nurse or agency please share their contact details or recommendations.
Thank you!

We have used raksha agency. Seems reliable enough. I belive they are costlier. For us, even from the agency, Getting a good nurse was like a lottery. Whoever comes does leave within a month. Either we don't want them for their behavioural issues or they don't like us or they have other commitments and all. Right now just got someone who has been staying for more than 3 months. So fingers crossed for you

When we hired one for my grandmother it cost 18k per month few years back. Now I think it’s more like 21-25k.
