Hi portea team,
At first, I was bit upset with portea team as I did not get timely confirmation for my appointments. Also I did not get good response initially when I raised my concern. Within few minutes of raising the concern and expressing my dissatisfaction, your customer representative Mr. Ahmed called me and ensured that the concerns were addressed to my satisfaction. He even followed up the next day to ensure that I did not face any inconvenience. Kudos to him for getting things under control.
Regards,

Greetings to the Portea family,
Our hearfelt gratitude for your continued support for Papa ( Mr. Jitendra Modi). Papa left us for his heavenly abode on 2nd June. We have used your services for almost 8 years and have been more than satisfied with the same. Of course there have been problems; however all of you have stepped in and ironed out those issues, which was extremely reassuring for us since we are abroad.
We would specially like to mention and thank Janeesh. We completely understand that his job is not easy; however being available for Mummy, knowing that she is alone, he has always been a strong support for her.
Finally, Thank you to every Care taker of Portea who have supported us and taken care of Papa in these last 8 years.
Mummy has passed on her gratitude and blessings to all. We have been and will continue to refer Portea to family and friends.
Regards,
Mamta & Piyush Modi
Hi ,
“My name is Sivagami, I am the elder daughter of Mr. G. Vairavanathan.I take this opportunity on behalf of my sister Kalpana and myself to express our sincere thank you to you and the entire team from Portea Home Health Care, Chennai. Thank you for your support in efficiently arranging the attender and his Covid test done in a timely manner.
Being so far away from home and our parents at this most critical and challenging times, we are so grateful to get your help.
You and the team did an excellent job very efficiently for this emergency hospital admission. By God’s grace and everyone’s support, my Dad is back home and recovering well.
I would like to thank, the Lab Service Coordinator Ms. Maggie for her support to get the Covid test result on time for the attender Sabari. I heard that, she followed up with the results late at night. Her timeless efforts are greatly appreciated.
Next, Ms. Hema Latha for her support in coordinating and appointing Sabari in a very short notice. I understand that, it must be challenging to get such staff due to given circumstances of Covid time.
Lastly, Mr. Sabari for his support and efficient service for the entire stay. He did a good job of taking care of my Dad. Much appreciated!
Thank you.”
This is an expression of sincere appreciation towards the services rendered by Mr Jeemon, Pune, Portea Manager.
Despite the current challenging situation arising out of COVID-19 infection, Jeemon has been very supportive. He is polite and professional in his dealing and we hope and look forward for a similar experience in the future as well.
This is to express deepest thanks for all your support over these last two months for my father Mr. A R Mahendra, who passed away on 19th April.
I would like to add my appreciation to Suyash for always being available, whatever the time of day. Also, for his commitment and involvement where he made every effort to meet our requirements. This was evident in the first BIPAP machine we took from you even when my father was in hospital in February, as also with the second machine you provided even during the lockdown.
Additionally, we are grateful for the immediacy with which he provided us with an attendant when needed.
While we first had Mr Nutan for one week , and later on Bidhan Roy, we are extremely happy with both their services as well. I would like to extend this to the personnel of Portea who visited us each month, who exhibited patience and efficiency.
An overall very efficiently coordinated and satisfactory experience.
Suyash has played a significant part in keeping my father comfortable these last two months, and we are indeed grateful to him.
Laxmi, a nursing attendant has been serving the patient for the past one and half years with utmost dedication. She had a very good chemistry with the patient. She is able to manage the patient whose walk and talk were impaired on account clipping surgery to the brain. During her shift I and my family members get more relief and confidence. We highly appreciate her services and I thank Portea for deputing such a dedicated nurse.
I availed Nursing Attendant service for my mother and must say that the services provided by the person who visited my home were excellent. The nursing attendants who visited our house for last one month were very proactive and kind. The manager Mr. Joji was very communicative
“A quick note of gratitude to the Portea team. The service and the attendant were really good, and offered us great relief and assistance post the surgery. Many thanks for your help!”

A nursing assistant offers essential care and medical support with the supervision of nursing staff or other medical staff, thereby helping to guarantee a good standard of care for the patient. When you employ a nursing assistant, it is vital to make sure that they have the abilities and skills necessary to undertake their responsibilities and do well. Here are some details on the things that you need to check prior to employing a nursing aide.
The day-to-day tasks of a nursing aide are centred around assisting doctors and nurses to offer good patient care. They carry out duties like observing patients’ health status, helping the patients bathe and dress, helping with their personal hygiene, making sure that the patients are eating their food and offering mobility aid and transportation for treatment.
A certified nursing assistant should possess a good work ethic since their job entails long and demanding shifts. They should possess an amiable demeanour since they spend most of their time communicating with patients. Nurse aides spend more time with the patients and so they remain the first person to be called upon for requirements from patients concerning their care. They are well-positioned to recognize the requirement for additional assistance or emotional and social support. Nursing aides are thus accountable for ensuring patient requirements are met by passing on their requests or issues that they observed to their superiors so that they can be quickly addressed.
Nursing assistant duties and responsibilities also include; repositioning patients, answering requests, examining or observing patients find out problems that necessitate medical attention [like bruises, wounds, etc], recording their vitals [blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate and respiration rate, height, weight], conveying symptoms or changes to staff, gathering and carrying specimens, ensuring activity plans or treatment are followed, helping patients with daily exercise and reminding them to take their supplements or medications on time.
To meet their responsibilities and perform daily tasks to a great standard, nursing aides should possess specific skills. It is essential to have knowledge of these details so that you can hire the right candidate for the nursing job.
Since nursing aides are in the caring role, it is vital that they possess good communication skills. A helpful amiable manner and active listening are fundamental for building faith and trust with a patient. Nursing aides should be good verbal communicators so that they can talk about care with the patient and their families and express any serious matters to medical staff openly and effectively.
Nursing aides should be capable of handling unfolding medical circumstances or reported issues swiftly and effectively. The capability to think rationally, get in touch with the most appropriate member of staff and offer temporary care and support is an essential asset.
In order to thrive in balancing the burden of the role and numerous patients, a certified nurse aide requires strong organisational skills. Great attention to detail is vital to ensure that proper patient care standards are met.
Some abilities boost the competency of a nursing aide. When you employ a nursing assistant, you need to seek the following capabilities.
A private home health aide should be capable of actively listening to the needs of patients to make sure that their emotional, medical and hygiene requirements are met. They should also pay attention to the instructions of their managers about maintaining care standards, doing particular tasks and coordinating the job at hand with other departments and their members. Comprehending body language and tone will assist a nursing aide to do well as a carer.
A person with high problem awareness and sensitivity will possess the ability to say something when things are wrong or there might be a likelihood of developing an issue. Nursing aides are present on the wards to take care of the patients and so they are in a great position to notice the requirement for additional support even when other staff might overlook it. They must be constantly attuned to the requirements of others, and this is where problem sensitivity plays a huge part.
Nursing aides are often a part of a bigger team. They are split in accordance with the medical department and as a result combined working skills are a necessity. Nursing aides that can gel well with their colleagues and fit into existing ways of operating are a welcome addition.
To make sure that you choose the ideal candidate for the nursing aide role, you must go through a recruitment process that incorporates a round of technical and aptitude technical skills testing. This will offer you the confidence that the person who passes these tests possesses the necessary skills to carry out daily tasks and also to excel in everything that they do.
