Hospital nurses are divided into two groups: internal nurses and external nurses. Different service models have different charging standards.
1 Charging standards for internal nurses in hospitals
US$60/day--US$100/day
Internal nurses are service personnel of third-party nursing companies that cooperate with hospitals, and are generally charged according to the number of people served;
One nurse serves two patients: price US$100/day
One nurse serves three patients: price US$80/day
One nurse serves four patients: price US$60/day
One nurse serves six patients: price US$40/day
(Charging standards for different hospitals/different departments will be slightly different; employers do not need to provide meals/accompanying beds)
2 Charging standards for external nurses in hospitals
US$130/day-US$250/day
External nurses in hospitals provide one-on-one services; prices are determined according to the patient's physical condition and service content. Nurses will enter the hospital as family members to accompany the patient.
Caring for self-care patients: nurse price is $130/day
Caring for semi-self-care patients: nurse price is $160/day
Caring for bedridden patients: nurse price is $200/day
Caring for disabled patients: nurse price is $350 per day
Note: The cost of the examination required for the nurse to be admitted to the hospital is generally borne by the employer; at the same time, the employer is required to provide the nurse with simple meals (hospital meals) and accompanying beds (US$5-10 per day)
3 Preparation before admission
When a family member needs a nurse to accompany the hospital, it is recommended to consult the hospital nurse in advance. If there is no nurse in the hospital, please ask an external nurse to accompany the patient. The following matters need to be noted:
It is more reliable to find a professional nursing company. The staff of the nursing company have received professional training, and both the nurse and the patient are insured, and the service is guaranteed; if there is a problem, the responsible company can be found.
On the contrary, small housekeeping companies and black nurses; most of them rely on personal experience to provide services, and there are problems and disputes that blame each other.
Interview the nurse in advance
When selecting a nurse, you need to check three pieces of information: training skills certificate, health certificate, and ID card. Then have a video interview to communicate about work experience, and after confirming it, determine the charging standards before the service is admitted to the hospital
Before the nurse goes to the hospital to provide services, be sure to determine the various charging standards; beware of arbitrary price increases, which will catch you off guard.
Can the nurse be replaced for free? After the nurse interview is successful, the actual service may be different from the communication and understanding. Before the service, confirm with the nursing company whether the nurse can be replaced seamlessly to avoid family members being left without care in the hospital.
