# Home Care Services
> A guide to managing home visits, nursing care, patient monitoring, medicines, and billing for your home care services team using Bizaxl.
Your home care services business is built around one simple idea: bringing quality healthcare to patients in the comfort of their own home. But managing that care across many patients, many caregivers, and many visits every day creates complexity. This system brings everything into one place so nothing slips through the cracks.
## What This System Does for You
Think of it as a digital control room for your care team. Here is what it handles:
* **Patient records** that hold each patient's health background, current conditions, medicines, and allergies so any caregiver who visits them is prepared
* **Visit scheduling** so your team knows who to visit, when, and where
* **Visit records** where nurses and doctors write down exactly what they did, what they found, and what was given to the patient during each visit
* **Nursing task tracking** with a clear list of tasks to complete at each visit, and automatic recording of when each task was started and finished
* **Patient monitoring** with structured checks for things like wound condition, how well the patient can move around, and whether they are eating on their own
* **Wound care** with photo uploads so the care team can track how a wound is healing over time
* **Home blood tests** that can be ordered, collected at the patient's home, and reported back through the system
* **Medicines** prescribed during visits and dispensed from your pharmacy
* **Billing** tied directly to every visit and every service so nothing goes uninvoiced
## Who Is This For
Home care services are typically used by patients who:
* Are recovering from surgery or an illness and cannot travel to a clinic
* Have chronic conditions (diabetes, heart disease, paralysis) that require regular monitoring at home
* Are elderly or bedridden and need ongoing nursing care
* Have wounds that need regular cleaning and dressing
* Need physiotherapy exercises at home after a joint replacement or stroke
## The People Who Use This System
| Who | What They Do in the System |
| ------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Care Coordinator (Admin) | Registers patients, schedules visits, tracks billing, runs reports |
| Doctor | Reviews patient history, records home consultation findings, prescribes medicines |
| Nurse | Completes nursing tasks during home visits, documents wound care, records observations |
| Pharmacist | Dispenses medicines from the pharmacy using the POS system |
| Patient | Can be invited to view their own records through the patient portal |
## How a Typical Day Works
In the morning, the care coordinator checks the day's visit schedule. Each nurse or doctor is assigned their visits and knows which patient to go to and what services are needed. During the visit, the caregiver opens the patient's record on their device, completes their nursing checklist, records vital signs and observations, performs the care procedure, and documents everything. Back at the office, the admin invoices all the day's visits and the pharmacy dispenses any medicines that were prescribed. At the end of the day, every visit is recorded, every task is documented, and every bill has been raised.
