Linda

Barcelona, Sep 2025

I hired Benjamin to support my husband after he broke his knee and had serious side effects from surgery, including a catheter, lots of hospital visits and careful care. He was fantastic, professional, and made us feel comfortable at home, knowing when to step aside and when to support. He even cooked up some eggs when we needed it and took initiative, and his medical skills and knowledge were really helpful through some of the most challenging times we’ve ever faced. A bit pricey for us, but we always told ourselves he was worth it.

I can't recommend Benjamin highly enough, he's absolutely incredible. I had a broken leg, then an infection and another surgery, and he saw me through the whole thing - took me to appointments and helped me get set up in my home for my leg and other parts of the treatment during a very rough period. What struck me most was his foresight, always three or four steps ahead, great at thinking on his feet, extremely pleasant and very kind, with a good sense of humor that never gets in the way of the work because he stays completely focused. His communication was extremely clear, he’s a great listener, and without him my mood and morale would have gone quite differently.

I’ve known Benjamin for about four years and use him on an ad hoc basis, mostly when hosting events. He and his wife helped with practical things - handling whatever was needed on the day - and he’s very emotionally intelligent, sees what people need, and steps in. He is super punctual and reliable. I haven’t used him for medical stuff, just practical jobs, and the price felt fair, so I’d recommend him.

Frequently Asked Questions

What expats want to know before hiring nurses in Barcelona.

Are there English-speaking nurses in Barcelona?
Yes, and more do as the expat community grows. The hard part is knowing who is reliable before you book, so every one we list is reviewed by other expats who have actually used them.
What should I check before hiring nurses in Barcelona?
Read recent reviews, be clear about exactly what you need, and agree the scope and an estimate in writing before any work starts. For anything regulated, check they hold the right credentials for the job.
Are the doctors and dentists properly registered in Barcelona?
Yes. Doctors and dentists must be registered, as colegiado with the relevant Colegio in Spain. Reputable private clinics will confirm their professionals' registration.
What should I avoid when hiring nurses in Barcelona?
Avoid paying the full amount up front (a deposit can be fair), anyone who will not give a clear quote, and unusually cheap prices that get padded with extras later. And never use someone who cannot show the right certification.
How do I explain what I need if my Spanish is limited?
A photo, a short video or a written list does most of the talking, and the professionals we list are used to international clients. Booking an English-speaking one takes the stress out of it entirely.
How do you say nurses in Spanish?
In Spanish, nurses are usually called enfermeros. That is the word to search for or to ask a neighbour, though many professionals here are used to the English term too.
How do I find nurses I can trust in Barcelona?
Check the reviews and any credentials before you book. On Locallista the reviews are phone-verified and the ranking is based on real expat experience, not who paid the most.
