Understanding the condition

Anaemia is particularly common in Morocco, affecting women of childbearing age, older people and patients with chronic illnesses. In Marrakech, iron and vitamin B12 deficiencies are the most common causes. Home nursing follow-up includes regular blood tests (full blood count, serum iron, ferritin, vitamin B12, folic acid), administering intravenous iron infusions for severe anaemia, and monitoring clinical signs: pallor, fatigue, breathlessness, tachycardia. Our qualified nurses coordinate follow-up with your haematologist or treating physician for optimal care.

Why home care for Anemia Home Care

Severe anaemia causes breathlessness, tachycardia and disabling fatigue, and may require a transfusion if it is not corrected in time.

IV iron infusions

Administering injectable iron (Ferinject, Venofer) at home, monitoring vital signs and allergic reactions.

Regular blood tests

Full blood count, serum iron, ferritin, iron-binding capacity, vitamin B12 and folic acid — samples taken at home, results within 24-48h.

Clinical monitoring

Assessing pallor, fatigue, heart rate and blood pressure at every visit.

Treatment adherence

Monitoring oral iron intake (timing, food interactions) and vitamin supplementation.

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes, on medical prescription. The nurse administers the infusion over 30 to 60 minutes, monitors vital signs and stays at least 30 minutes after it ends to detect any reaction.

  • Treatment depends on the severity: 1 to 3 infusions for a moderate deficiency, several months of follow-up for chronic anaemia. The haematologist adjusts according to the results.

  • Often yes for mild deficiencies, but intestinal absorption is low (10-15%). In case of digestive intolerance or severe deficiency, the IV route is more effective.
