Across Pune & Pimpri-Chinchwad
A trained attendant at home to take on the daily work: washing, feeding, toileting, moving the patient safely and keeping medicines to schedule. Booked by the shift, from Kothrud and Baner to Kharadi and Nigdi.
Free assessment. If the case actually calls for a nurse, we will say so.
Quick answer
Patient care services in Pune put a trained attendant, also called a caretaker, in the patient's home to handle daily living rather than medical treatment. The attendant washes and dresses the patient, cooks and feeds, manages toileting, moves them safely, keeps prescribed oral medicines to schedule and tells the family when something shifts. Attendants are booked by the shift rather than by the visit.
Who attends
A trained caregiver, police-verified, bonded and insured
Coverage
West, east, central and south Pune, plus the Pimpri-Chinchwad belt
Also called
Patient caretaker, home attendant, patient care taker
This is what an attendant at home in Pune actually spends the shift doing. Unglamorous, repetitive work that keeps a dependent patient clean, fed and comfortable, and keeps them out of hospital. Duties are agreed with your family in writing before anyone starts.
Few agencies spell this out before taking a booking. An attendant is a trained caregiver, not a nurse, and the line between the two is fixed. Knowing where it falls stops you buying the wrong kind of help, and stops anyone in the house asking an attendant for clinical work they are not qualified to do.
Non-clinical daily care
Clinical procedures, never done by an attendant
An attendant on shift for the daily work, with a nurse dropping in for injections or a dressing change. Tell us the case and we will say which combination it needs.
Put simply: if the patient needs help getting through the day, that is an attendant. If a doctor has written down a procedure, that is a nurse. A good number of families need one of each.
| Patient care attendant | Home nurse | |
|---|---|---|
| Qualification | Trained caregiver | GNM or BSc Nursing |
| Main job | Daily living and comfort | Clinical procedures and monitoring |
| Injections and drips | No | Yes |
| Oral medicines | Gives what is prescribed | Gives and monitors response |
| Bathing and toileting | Yes, this is the core work | Yes, alongside clinical care |
| Usually booked as | Ongoing shifts, weeks or months | Visits, or shifts for serious cases |
An attendant's day is largely intimate work, so this matters more here than it does with a nurse who visits, does one thing and leaves. Say what suits the patient when you book. Asking changes nothing about the charge.
The default request where the patient is a woman, and nearly always for an elderly mother or aaji.
Wanted where somebody has to be lifted daily, and by men who would sooner a man washed them.
Picked by when the patient genuinely needs someone in the room, not by package.

Round the clock
Attendants are placed across Pune city and the Pimpri-Chinchwad belt. If your locality is not on the list, ring and ask.
What families ring us about. The thread running through all of it is dependency rather than any particular diagnosis.
Bedridden patient care at home comes down to turning every two hours, bed baths, diaper changes and guarding the skin. Done properly it never stops, and it flattens a family inside a month.
Bedsore prevention · immobile patients · long-term bed rest
Someone on hand to wash, dress and get the patient to the bathroom safely for the weeks they cannot bend or put weight through a leg.
Knee and hip replacement · fracture recovery · post-operative help
After a stroke, or with paralysis, the day is built around transfers in and out of bed, feeding and washing on the weaker side, and working through the physiotherapist's exercises between visits.
Post-stroke support · hemiplegia · paraplegia
Dementia and Alzheimer's need an unvarying routine, an eye kept on wandering, patience with the same question asked over and over, and proof that meals and medicines went down.
Memory loss · Alzheimer's support · Parkinson's
A familiar Pune arrangement: parents in the older parts of the city, children out in the IT corridor or overseas. Help with bathing and cooking, medicines on time, falls prevented, and a call home when anything shifts.
Senior citizen care · caretaker for elderly · home attendant for elderly
Through cancer treatment or towards the end of life, daily care aimed at comfort, running alongside whichever nurse and doctor are managing the symptoms.
Palliative care at home · chemotherapy support · end-of-life care
Hospitals hand over instructions and nobody to follow them. An attendant picks up the daily side while a nurse calls in for whatever was actually prescribed.
Post-hospitalisation care · recovery at home
Whoever is doing the caring gives out first, and rarely says so. Handing over to an attendant for a few weeks is a practical arrangement, not a failure of duty.
Respite care · short-term attendant · temporary caretaker
Tell us what the patient has stopped being able to do alone and we will point you to the right level of help.

Ring or WhatsApp with what the patient manages alone and where they struggle, your exact locality, and any gender or language preference.
We work out whether an attendant fits, or whether a nurse is needed instead or alongside.
Chosen for the patient, your area and your preferences. Their details reach you before their first shift.
Duties are written down and agreed, so nothing is assumed and nobody is asked to work outside their scope.
Most attendant bookings start within a day or two of coming home. Patients reach us from Ruby Hall Clinic, Jehangir, Sahyadri, Deenanath Mangeshkar, Aditya Birla Memorial, Noble, Sassoon and any number of smaller nursing homes across the city and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
What the hospital hands over is a set of instructions. What it cannot hand over is anybody to carry them out. The fortnight after a discharge is when a family finds out how much lifting, washing and watching a day really holds, and it is usually one person absorbing all of it while the rest are at work.
Book against the address the patient is going home to rather than the hospital they are leaving. Someone discharged from Ruby Hall in Camp but recovering in Wakad needs an attendant who can reach Wakad every morning for the next two months.
Hospital names describe where patients are discharged from. They do not imply any tie-up or affiliation.
Real reviews from families who booked through Ayushya. Locations are as the reviewer gave them.
"My father needed constant monitoring after his stroke. The caretaker from Ayushya was very patient and the progress in just 3 weeks has been remarkable."
"Living in the USA, I was constantly worried about my mother's post-surgery recovery in Pune. Ayushya's team took over completely. The daily updates were a blessing."
"Humble staff and excellent service. I hope they expand to more locations. Sunita ma'am (the caretaker) was very helpful with my grandmother."
"The nursing staff is extremely well-trained and polite. They handled my father's wound dressing and injections very professionally. Highly recommended for home nursing."
Tell us how the patient's day goes and where it breaks down. We will say plainly whether that needs an attendant, a nurse, or one of each.
