Understanding the condition
Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide according to the WHO, and Morocco is no exception. In Marrakech, patients with depression often suffer from social isolation, made worse by the stigma around mental illness. Home nursing support plays an essential role: checking adherence to antidepressant treatment, monitoring side effects, assessing the psychological state and alerting the psychiatrist if things deteriorate. Our qualified nurses provide a regular, caring and professional human presence. They do not replace the psychiatrist or the psychologist, but they maintain the link between consultations and ensure that the patient does not drop out of their care pathway.

Why home care for Depression Support Care
Stopping antidepressant treatment without medical advice is the leading cause of relapse. Regular nursing follow-up improves adherence.
Medication adherence
Daily checking that the treatment is taken, pill organiser, detecting missed doses and side effects.
Assessing the overall state
Observing mood, sleep, appetite and hygiene — key indicators of worsening or improvement.
Link with the psychiatrist
Sending an observation report at each consultation, with an immediate alert if there are suicidal thoughts.
Regular human presence
Scheduled visits that break isolation and maintain a structuring social link for the patient.
Frequently asked questions
No. The nurse handles medical follow-up (adherence, vital signs, side effects) and liaison with your psychiatrist. Psychotherapy is the role of the psychologist or psychiatrist.
The nurse applies the safety protocol: never leaving the patient alone, contacting the treating psychiatrist and emergency medical services, and staying on site until care is taken over.
The frequency is set with your psychiatrist: daily in the acute phase, then spaced out to 2-3 times a week in the stabilisation phase.
