frequent nursing home

If a nurse or family asks the physician to see patient frequently, is there a modifier or note to put on claim to explain why patient has been seen frequently?

Nope, the visits must be medically necessary, not based on a family's whim. If the visits are necessary, bill as usual and the documentation should support you.
