How we can help
How soon should I book post-operative care?
We recommend booking as soon as your surgery date is confirmed. This allows us to prepare your home and match the right team to your specific needs. However, we understand that medical schedules change, and we can often accommodate last-minute requests if your discharge date moves.
Do I need a Nurse or a Caregiver?
This depends on the complexity of your recovery. A caregiver is well suited to help with mobility, meals, hygiene and medication prompts. If you require injections, complex wound dressings or clinical monitoring, we will assign a registered nurse. Many clients combine both for complete support.
Is there a minimum booking time?
No, our service is flexible. You can book a Settle-in Service for just the day of discharge, or ongoing support for several weeks. There are no lock in contracts, so you can simply use the service until you regain your strength and independence.

I have found Nurse Next Door (NND) very professional yet friendly to deal with. The support staff whom assist me in my daily tasks are wonderful and I have built some amazing relationships with them. Many of the support staff go above and beyond there tasks making each outing memorable and enjoyable. I am privileged to call many within NND close friends rather than staff or support as they are truly invested in their roles to look after, care and encourage clients. I would insist that anyone looking or needing support go with NND as I have never regretted my decision to do so over a year ago. I am not just a client, a number, or another file. I am apart of this wonderful Pink family

I have been with Nurse next door Mackay since returning home to Sarina a few months ago. Carers, Nurses and Administrators have been friendly and helpful while getting used to being in a wheelchair after my motorbike accident. I would recommend this business for its care and compassion for the client.

As l have always been the helper, it is hard for me to ask for help when the tables have turned ! But the Nurse Next Door team have been wonderful (l haven't met a bad one yet). They are ways pleasant and only too happy to help with anything. Absolutely beautiful people right throughout the team, from office staff right to all the nurses. Cheers guys, you are doing a top job!
