Safety Protocols

Your Safety Is Our First Priority

Every professional, every visit, every piece of equipment — held to the highest clinical safety standards.

Our Standards

Built on Four Safety Pillars

Every layer of our service is designed to protect patients, families, and our professionals.

Staff Verification

Rigorous background checks, credential validation, and police verification before any professional joins our network.

PPE Compliance

Masks, gloves, and appropriate protective equipment are mandatory on every home visit — no exceptions.

Equipment Sterilization

All medical equipment is sterilized before and after each visit following established clinical sterilization guidelines.

Regular Health Screening

Professionals undergo periodic health screening so illness is never carried into a patient's home environment.


Protocol Details

How We Implement Each Protocol

Concrete steps we take — not just promises — at every stage of the care delivery process.

Staff Verification & Training

  • Credential check: Degree certificates, nursing council or physiotherapy council registration verified against source documents.
  • Police verification: Background check completed and archived before first deployment.
  • Ongoing training: Professionals complete refresher modules on infection control, clinical protocols, and patient handling every quarter.
  • Supervised onboarding: New staff shadow an experienced professional for their first three visits.

Hygiene & Sanitization

  • Hand hygiene: WHO five-moment hand hygiene protocol followed before and after every patient contact.
  • PPE kit: Disposable gloves, surgical mask, and shoe covers used on every visit; N95 masks for aerosol-generating procedures.
  • Surface wipe-down: High-contact surfaces in the care area sanitized with hospital-grade disinfectant before setup.
  • Waste disposal: Clinical waste (used dressings, sharps) removed in sealed bio-waste bags — never left in household bins.

Equipment & Health Monitoring

  • Pre-visit sterilization: Reusable instruments (BP cuffs, stethoscopes, pulse oximeters) cleaned and sterilized at the office before each shift.
  • Single-use items: Needles, syringes, gloves, and wound dressings are always single-use and disposed of immediately after use.
  • Staff health screening: Temperature and symptom check performed before each shift; professionals with any respiratory symptoms are stood down.
  • Vaccination records: All staff maintain up-to-date Hepatitis B, influenza, and COVID-19 vaccination records on file.
