Caring for a bedridden patient is demanding work that families often take on without training — and the results show up as pressure sores, chest infections, contractures and exhausted caregivers. Life Line provides attendants and nurses who are trained specifically for immobile patients, whether the cause is stroke, paralysis, advanced age, spinal injury or long-term illness.
The core of good bedridden care is routine. The patient is repositioned every two hours, day and night. Pressure points are checked and protected before skin breaks down. The bed stays dry and wrinkle-free. Limbs are moved gently through their range so joints do not stiffen. The patient is kept upright for feeding so food does not enter the lungs.
Where sores have already developed, our nurses manage them properly with staged wound care, and we advise on air mattresses, positioning aids and hospital-style beds that make the work safer for everyone. Catheter care, NG tube feeding and suctioning are provided by nursing staff when the case requires them.
This is what families mean by bistar par mareez ki dekhbhal. A patient who cannot get out of bed needs turning, feeding, cleaning and watching around the clock, and doing it properly is what prevents bed sores and chest infections.

Bedridden Patient Care charges in Lahore — how pricing works
Bedridden care is charged per shift, because it is continuous work — turning every two hours, feeding, cleaning, skin checks. It is not a service that can sensibly be bought by the visit. Long-term bookings, which is what most of these cases become, carry the lowest daily rate we offer.
What you are billed for
12-hour day duty
An attendant through the day handling hygiene, feeding, turning and positioning.
12-hour night duty
Overnight turning and toileting, which is where bed sores are most often prevented or caused.
24-hour cover
Continuous care by a rotation — the arrangement most bedridden patients eventually need.
Nurse visits on top
Catheter changes, NG feeding, wound dressing and injections billed separately per visit.
What moves the price up or down
- The patient’s weight and how many people are needed for a safe turn
- Whether existing pressure sores need active treatment
- Whether tube feeding or a catheter is in place
- Length of booking — monthly rates are substantially lower per day

We do not publish a single flat rate because it would be misleading — the honest figure depends on your patient. Call or WhatsApp us with the diagnosis, what the patient can still do unaided and your area of Lahore, and we will quote a specific number. Whatever is agreed is what you pay; nothing is added to the bill afterwards.
Bedridden Patient Care in Lahore — FAQs
How do you prevent bed sores?
By repositioning the patient every two hours around the clock, keeping skin clean and dry, protecting pressure points, checking the skin daily, maintaining good nutrition and hydration, and recommending an air mattress for high-risk patients.
Can you treat an existing bed sore at home?
Yes. Our nurses assess the grade of the sore and manage it with appropriate cleaning and dressing at home, alongside strict pressure relief. Deep or infected sores are managed in coordination with your doctor.
Do you provide 24-hour attendants for bedridden patients?
Yes, and for most bedridden patients we recommend it. Turning, hygiene and feeding need to continue through the night, which is difficult for one family member to sustain alone.
Do you provide female nurses?
Yes. We have both male and female staff, and for bedridden patient care we assign a female nurse or female attendant to female patients as a matter of routine — not as a special request. Bathing, catheter care, changing and any procedure needing privacy are always handled by same-gender staff where the family wants that. Tell us when you call on 0302 5286596 so we assign correctly the first time.

Bedridden care is charged per shift, because it is continuous work — turning every two hours, feeding, cleaning, skin checks. It is not a service that can sensibly be bought by the visit. Long-term bookings, which is what most of these cases become, carry the lowest daily rate we offer. The exact figure depends on your case, so call or WhatsApp 0302 5286596 and we will quote it clearly before anything begins — agreed in advance, with nothing added to the bill afterwards.
