Private Nurse at Home in Hounslow

Hounslow • West London

NMC-registered private nurses at home in Hounslow

Some needs go beyond everyday care and call for a qualified nurse. When that is the case, a private nurse at home lets your relative receive genuinely clinical care in Hounslow without a hospital admission or a move into a nursing home. Protocol Healthcare Services arranges NMC-registered nurses to deliver skilled care in the home, from managing medication and complex wounds to catheter, stoma and PEG care, post-operative recovery and palliative nursing, all in the surroundings the person knows best. You can read how it works in our private nurse at home guide.

We are honest about how we operate. We do not run a clinic on Hounslow High Street: families here work with our London office at Highview House, 167 Station Road, Edgware HA8 7JU. What we run is a care and staffing service covering London and the Home Counties with a strong nursing arm, placing registered nurses who have been thoroughly vetted, with a consultant available around the clock. Whether a client lives in Isleworth, Brentford, Heston or Feltham, the clinical standards and the safeguards behind them are exactly the same. On regulation, Protocol Healthcare Services Ltd has been registered with the Care Quality Commission for personal care since 2019 (provider ID 1-6591402702); the service has not been inspected yet, so no CQC rating has been published.

Registered, accountable nursing you can trust

Every private nurse we place is registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), the professional regulator for nursing in the UK, and has completed enhanced DBS and right-to-work checks and references before starting. As an REC-affiliated agency we hold ourselves to the standards that families in Hounslow have every right to expect. That combination of professional registration and rigorous vetting is what lets you hand over clinical tasks with genuine confidence.

Hospital-to-home nursing in Hounslow

Hospital discharge is one point where a private nurse can help. West Middlesex University Hospital in Isleworth, run by Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, sends many Hounslow residents home each week, sometimes with wounds, drains, catheters or a demanding new medication regime. A private nurse can manage all of that in the home, monitoring recovery, spotting complications early and liaising with NHS district nurses and GPs. Getting those first weeks right often makes the difference between a smooth recovery and an avoidable return to hospital.

Private nursing also works well alongside our other services. A registered nurse might handle the clinical tasks while a visiting or live-in Care Professional supports everyday life, so a person gets both the medical care and the personal, human support they need under one coordinated arrangement.

Palliative and complex care at home

For people facing a terminal illness, being cared for at home, surrounded by family and familiar things, means a great deal. Our private nurses provide palliative and end-of-life nursing in Hounslow, including pain and symptom management, syringe drivers and close coordination with community palliative teams, so that dignity and comfort come first. We also support complex, ongoing conditions where nurse-led care is needed day to day, working in step with the person's wider medical team. This dovetails naturally with our dementia and specialist care where cognitive and clinical needs sit side by side.

Funding a private nurse in Hounslow

Private nursing is priced on a clinical assessment of the tasks involved and the hours required, and we set out the cost clearly before care begins. Many Hounslow families self-fund, while others qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare where a person's needs are primarily clinical, which the NHS assesses and funds through the local Integrated Care Board rather than the London Borough of Hounslow. Our team is happy to explain how these routes work together, and our paying for care guide covers them in more detail.
