Injections at Home in Singapore

What it costs

from S$90 per visit for the nurse's time. Consumables are billed separately at cost — no markup. After-hours and urgent same-day visits add 40% to the nursing fee (evenings, weekends, public holidays); offshore-zone visits are quoted before you book. The fee also covers travel within mainland Singapore and a written summary for the patient's doctor. See the full pricing list.

What happens during the visit

• The nurse confirms the prescription and the patient's details.
• The injection is prepared and given safely.
• The patient is observed briefly afterwards.
• The dose and site are documented.
• A written visit summary is left for the patient's own doctor.

Who needs this

People who need regular prescribed injections — for example intramuscular or subcutaneous medications — that they or their family aren't able to give themselves.

Subsidies you may be eligible for

Eligible Singapore Citizens and PRs may qualify for AIC-subsidised home nursing and the Home Caregiving Grant. See home nursing subsidies for who qualifies and how to apply.

When to call a doctor

• Rash, swelling of the face or throat, or breathing difficulty after an injection (possible allergic reaction — seek urgent help)
• Severe pain, spreading redness, or swelling at the injection site
• Fever after the injection

For urgent or severe symptoms, call 995 or go to the nearest A&E.
