Injections at Home in Singapore

What it costs

typically S$115–200 per visit for the nurse's time. Consumables are billed separately at cost — no markup. The fee also covers travel within mainland Singapore and a written summary for the patient's doctor. See the full pricing list.

Surcharges, where they apply:

• Same-day / urgent (booked within 24 hours): +S$60
• Off-island / remote zones (Sentosa, Jurong Island, Tuas South): +S$55
• Visits beyond 60 minutes: +S$60 per additional 30 minutes

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.
