Takes over breathing for a patient who cannot sustain it. Only the ICU-trained nurse on duty touches the settings.

Across Pune & Pimpri-Chinchwad
A home ICU installed in your own house: ICU bed, ventilator or BiPAP, oxygen, monitor and infusion pumps, run by ICU-trained nurses around the clock. We survey the room and the power supply before anything is delivered.
Free assessment. We will tell you honestly if the patient should stay in hospital.
Quick answer
An ICU setup at home in Pune is a critical care environment built inside the patient's own house and staffed by ICU-trained nurses. It usually means an ICU bed, breathing support from a ventilator or BiPAP, oxygen from a concentrator or cylinder, a multipara monitor, infusion and syringe pumps, a suction machine and an alpha air mattress. Which of those are installed is decided by clinical assessment, and the room and the power supply are surveyed before delivery.
Who runs it
Two ICU-trained nurses on 12-hour shifts, with nursing assistants
Coverage
West, east, central and south Pune, plus the Pimpri-Chinchwad belt
Also called
Home ICU Pune, ICU at home Pune, critical care at home
The clinical side is the same wherever you are. What differs in Pune is practical, and it is worth settling before the ambulance is booked.
An oxygen concentrator stops making oxygen the second the supply drops, and a ventilator runs its internal battery down in well under an hour.
Outer Pune and parts of the Pimpri-Chinchwad belt still see longer cuts than the centre does, so a Critical setup here needs an inverter sized for both machines together plus a filled cylinder standing by. We work the load out at the survey rather than assume.
Installing the equipment is one visit. Keeping it running is many, and Pune is spread out in a way that catches people out.
A concentrator that fails at midnight in Nigdi is a different problem from one that fails in Kothrud. Give us the exact locality rather than just "Pune", and we will tell you honestly what response time to expect where you are.
Pune houses are generally kinder here than Mumbai flats, and a ground-floor room in a bungalow or row house is close to ideal.
What still has to be cleared is access on three sides of the bed so a nurse can turn the patient alone, space for equipment trolleys, and somewhere for the off-duty nurse to rest on a 24-hour setup.
The list is set by the assessment, not by a package. Most homes already have one or two of these, and whatever is missing comes on monthly rent instead of being bought outright.
Takes over breathing for a patient who cannot sustain it. Only the ICU-trained nurse on duty touches the settings.
Critical level · ventilator-dependent patients
Mask-delivered support at two pressures, higher on the way in and lower on the way out, with nothing passed into the airway. Normally the stage after a ventilator.
BiPAP on rent · COPD
Extracts oxygen from the air in the room, so there is nothing to refill. It does need uninterrupted power, which is why the backup question comes first in Pune.
Delivers flow rates beyond what a concentrator manages, and it is what keeps oxygen going when the power stops.
Keeps heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, respiration and temperature on screen without a break, with alarm limits set for this patient rather than a default.
Continuous vitals · alarm limits
Adjustable at the height, backrest and knees with rails on both sides, so a single nurse can turn a patient and sit them up without help.
Meter fluids and drugs at a set rate instead of letting gravity decide, which is the only way to hold a dose steady across several hours.
All three levels
Draws secretions out of the airway. For a tracheostomy or a ventilated patient it is used repeatedly through the day and cannot be done without.
Tracheostomy care · airway clearance
The mattress moves the pressure points around on a cycle so no patch of skin stays loaded. The DVT pump works the calves to keep a clot from forming while the patient cannot walk.
Bedsore and clot prevention
Almost everything here is taken monthly rather than purchased, which is the only reason a home setup is affordable at all. The full list sits on one page.
There are cases we decline, and it is fairer to set them out here than after you have paid for a survey. A home setup is safe for a stable patient on a long recovery. It is dangerous for anyone who might need something a hospital has and a house in Pune does not.
Stable, long-stay, no intervention expected
We will say so rather than take the booking
The call belongs to your treating doctor. We will not install against medical advice, and where a case sits on the line we would rather you gave it another week in the ward than moved too early.
The level follows the patient's condition. It is assigned at the assessment rather than chosen off a list.
Unstable, ventilator dependent
Moving from critical towards stable
Stable, mobility restricted
Installations run across Pune city and the Pimpri-Chinchwad belt. Because an engineer has to reach the house for servicing as well as installation, we confirm your exact locality at the survey rather than working from the city name.
Nearly every home ICU begins as a discharge. Patients come to us from Ruby Hall Clinic, Jehangir, Sahyadri, Deenanath Mangeshkar, Aditya Birla Memorial, Noble, Sassoon and other hospitals across Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
Bring us in before the discharge, not after. Two or three days is enough to assess the case, survey the room and the power supply, get the equipment in and tested, and have the first nurse take handover from the hospital team. Ringing on the morning of the discharge normally pushes it back a day regardless, which is the last thing anyone wants once the ward bed has been given up.
Get three things from the ward before you leave: the discharge summary, the ventilator or oxygen settings as they stand, and what is running through the lines. With those we can size the setup right first time instead of adjusting it in week two.
Hospital names describe where patients are discharged from. They do not imply any tie-up or affiliation.
Two patients almost never need the same equipment for the same stretch of time, so quotes vary widely. Four things account for most of the difference.
Critical carries the heaviest equipment list and Supportive the lightest, so the two sit in quite different ranges.
Plenty of households already have a bed or a concentrator left from a previous illness. We check whether it is still fit for use, and you take only the balance on rent.
Continuous cover needs two nurses in rotation. A number of step-down and supportive patients do fine on a single day shift with the family taking the night.
Rental on a monthly basis is cheaper by the day than on a weekly one, so a setup expected to run for months is quoted differently from a two-week bridge.
Rental, nursing and consumables are put in one figure after the assessment, so nobody has to reopen the subject of money once the equipment is standing in the room.
Send the discharge summary and the current ventilator or oxygen settings. We will tell you which level applies, what the room and the power supply need, and honestly whether the patient should stay in hospital.
