Care management in Albion Park:
How we can help
What is a Care Designer?
A Care Designer is always a senior Registered Nurse. They are your dedicated partner who develops and oversees your care plan, manages the roster, and ensures we are meeting your specific goals, whether that is remaining independent at home or accessing the community.
How does Care Management work with the new Support at Home Program?
Under Support at Home, Care Management is a vital service to help you coordinate your distinct funding budgets (Clinical, Independence, and Everyday Living). We help you plan your quarterly budget so you don't run short on essential services.
Can I access Care Management privately?
Absolutely. Many families choose to pay privately for a Care Designer to oversee a loved one's care, especially if they live interstate or have complex medical needs. We provide the same level of clinical oversight and advocacy regardless of how the service is funded.
Can you support both NDIS and Aged Care in one household?
Yes. Mixed funding households are common. If one family member is on the NDIS and another is accessing Support at Home, your Care Designer can coordinate rosters to minimise disruption and streamline communication.
Do you charge for Care Management?
Yes. For Support at Home clients, this is paid from your funding budget. For NDIS participants, it is covered under relevant support items. For private clients, we offer a transparent fee structure. We ensure you understand all costs before care begins.
What happens if there is an emergency after hours?
The Care Services Team is available 24/7, 365 days a year. If a crisis occurs or urgent advice is needed, you can call and speak with a team member who knows your care plan.
Delivering a WOW Customer Experience
I feel very honoured to have been the very first client for Nurse Next Door at Kiama! I needed assistance after knee replacement surgery including showering, putting on and taking off surgical stockings and transport to my medical appointments. They also assisted me with some light household duties in the first week or so. Michael, Rebecca and especially Julie are such lovely people and gave me the confidence, reassurance and advice to get back on my feet in a month or so. They were kind enough to make arrangements so I didn't miss out on getting to see Keith Urban in concert again in Wollongong- we had such a fun night! I highly recommend this service - they helped me out so much and we had lots of fun along the way.
Karen Donnellan
I had a nurse from Nurse Next Door stay with me overnight while I did a prep for a procedures the next day. She prepared the medications, monitored my Blood sugar levels and blood pressure, and checked that I was safe all night. It was very comforting and made me feel that I would get through ii, and took away the anxiety. I was better with the nurse than I would have been hospital. I highly recommend this service

Delvene Todd
We were introduced to Michael and Rebecca who were starting their new franchise when our dad was needing in home care. They were so understanding accomodating and listened to what was important to make mum and dad comfortable with carers coming into the home. I appreciated how easy they were to talk to and how they welcomed our feedback and adjusted whatever was needed and organised the most suitable carers. We are very greatful for their personal and wonderful care right through to his recent passing and beyond xxx
