Nurse helping an elderly woman walk with a walker inside a bright Bali villa

I'm the senior nurse at BaliHomeNurse, and after twelve years in this profession — hospital wards in Denpasar first, then home care across south Bali — I can tell you one thing with confidence: most older people simply do better in their own bedroom than in any facility. Familiar light, familiar sounds, their own garden. What they need is the right support around them. That is what we build: a care routine that keeps your mother or father safe, clean, properly medicated and genuinely looked after, while you stay informed from anywhere in the world through a simple WhatsApp update after every visit.

What's Included

Personal Care & Hygiene

Bathing, dressing, grooming and continence care — done unhurried and with dignity. We adapt to your parent's habits, not the other way around.

Medication Support

Reminders and administration strictly according to the prescriptions of the treating doctor. Every dose goes into a written log the family can check at any time.

Mobility & Fall Prevention

Safe transfers, walking support and simple daily exercises. On the first visit we also check the home for fall hazards — thresholds, rugs, bathroom access.

Meals & Daily Living

Light meal preparation around dietary requirements, hydration tracking, and unrushed company during the visit — care is more than tasks.

How Often We Visit

There is no minimum commitment. Some families book a single two-hour visit a few times a week — enough for a shower, medication check and a walk. Others need a full 12-hour day shift while they are at work, or an overnight presence. When needs grow beyond visiting hours, the natural next step is a 24/7 live-in nurse; when the need is mostly social rather than clinical, lighter-touch companion care costs less and is often the better fit. For memory-related conditions we assign caregivers with specific training — see dementia & Alzheimer's care.

Before the first visit, it is worth walking through our home safety checklist for the elderly — half of the falls we see could have been prevented with IDR 500,000 of small fixes.

How We Start

  1. Tell us about your parent on WhatsApp

    Age, general condition, what help is needed and where in Bali. We reply the same day with honest advice and a price range.

  2. Free assessment visit

    A senior nurse meets your parent at home, reviews medications and doctor's notes, and checks the home environment.

  3. Care plan agreed with your doctor

    We put the plan in writing — tasks, frequency, escalation contacts — and align every clinical task with the treating doctor's instructions.

  4. Care starts, family stays informed

    The same small team of nurses comes on schedule. You receive a short WhatsApp report after every visit and a weekly summary.

Pricing

A nurse visit of up to two hours starts from IDR 350,000. A 12-hour day shift is from IDR 600,000, an overnight shift from IDR 700,000, and full live-in care from IDR 15,000,000 per month. Regular schedules (three or more visits per week) get package rates. Full tables are on the pricing page.

Please note: For medical emergencies call 112 or go to the nearest hospital — home nursing is not emergency care. All clinical tasks are carried out according to the instructions of your treating doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does elderly home care cost in Bali?
A visit of up to 2 hours is from IDR 350,000, a 12-hour shift from IDR 600,000, and 24/7 live-in care from IDR 15,000,000 per month. See the pricing page for the full table.
Are your caregivers licensed nurses?
Yes — clinical care is provided by nurses holding an Indonesian STR (Surat Tanda Registrasi) license, and every team member is background-checked with verifiable references. For non-clinical visits we can assign trained caregivers at a lower rate, always with nurse oversight.
Can you care for parents who are visiting Bali short-term?
Yes. Many of our clients are parents of expats staying for a few weeks or months. We can start from a single visit — no long contracts required.
Do your nurses speak English?
Yes. Coordinating nurses are fluent, care nurses speak conversational English, and all written reports and medication logs come in English.
Can your nurses give my parent their medication?
We remind, prepare and administer medication strictly according to the treating doctor's prescription. We never change doses or add medicines ourselves — any concern is reported back to the doctor and family.
What if my parent's needs increase over time?
We review the care plan monthly. If visiting care is no longer enough, we transition smoothly to a live-in arrangement — usually with caregivers your parent already knows.
