How we can help
Who performs the wound care?
Basic wound care can be performed by our qualified caregivers with the oversight from the Care designer. All complex wound care and wound management is performed by our qualified Registered Nurses (RNs) or Enrolled Nurses (ENs). They are currently registered with AHPRA and trained in strict aseptic techniques and infection control to ensure your safety.
Do I need to buy my own dressings?
Not necessarily. We can work with the supplies you already have, or coordinate directly with your pharmacy to have the right clinical dressings and bandages delivered to your home. Our nurses also assess your wound at every visit to make sure the products being used are supporting healing.
Can you treat diabetic wounds?
Yes. We have specialised experience in diabetic wound management, including diabetic foot ulcers. Our nurses take a holistic approach, treating the wound itself while also monitoring blood glucose levels and providing education to help prevent future complications.
Do I need a referral to book this service?
No, you can book our nurse led team privately without a referral. For complex wounds, we will ask for discharge summaries or care plans from your doctor, so we can collaborate with your GP and keep your clinical care consistent.
Delivering a WOW Customer Experience
We engaged Nurse Next Door to check on our 90 year old Dad on a weekly basis after health complications and surgery. They have been exceptional. The care has been fantastic and their communication to us kids on how our father is has been priceless as we live over an hour away from his retirement village. I highly recommend their services.

Nadine Duncan
We highly recommend Nurse Next Door Home Care Services. Michelle and Tim are wonderful to deal with. Once we identified the needs and days of service that we required, Michelle and Tim offered a quick and prompt Nurse/Aid immediately matching our unique, tailored needs. Shannon is fantastic, and the service also provided team leaders attending, making sure all needs are satisfied by both parties. The services involve walks, shopping, general house duties, meal preparation and really anything that we ask for. Perfect. Cannot praise them enough. A wonderful service provided by wonderful and caring people.

I'd highly recommend Nurse Next Door: -The management are professional, pick good staff and friendly. -Their Support Workers: - are matched well with me, my interests and spiritual beliefs. - are always punctual (if there's a delay in traffic or prior client, I receive a phone call by administration staff to advise). - well dressed (in bright pink uniform tops). - Office Management and owners willingly come and do shifts if someone calls in sick. - Any new support workers are always accompanied by management at first visit, not just arrive and not introduced to them. - Support Workers have ideas that I may not have thought of, about where to get something, or go for a drive somewhere discussed with me to assure I'm happy with suggestion. - I feel safe in all Nurse Next Door cars (which includes that their cars are maintained, clean and never have to stop for petrol. - I’ve never got lost getting to an appointment with their Support Workers (they have google maps on mobile phone or their modern car has the capacity to locate destination. - I look forward to working with Nurse Next Door, not only over the festive season as I don't have family or a holiday to go to but for the years to come.

We used the team at Nurse Next Door to assist in picking my grandma up from her nursing home and bringing her to my wedding. Georgia was amazing, and it meant that my nan could attend, not limit the night for other family members and could leave when she was ready. Their impeccable service meant we could enjoy a stress free day/night and know our loved one was well taken care of!

Nurse next door came to our rescue when my mother broke a bone in her Kneecap at age 79, and as our family is all very busy Nurse next door and their staff were nothing short of being helpful and supportive in all ways to help us get through this time. Whatever we needed they were able to Accommodate and sort for us and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of help in around the Home for Injured or medical associated issues for short term or long. I use then again at the drop of a hat

My wife was extremely unwell & we needed daily nursing & personal care for her, so we contacted Nurse Next Door. They have been exceptional. They responded immediately & within 24 hours had organised 2 hour daily care. Their staff are outstanding - professional, caring & kind. We would recommend them without hesitation. Colin Barrow

I truly believe if you are looking for a disability support service that actually listens & who will respectfully communicate with you with genuine care about you the client and family, The nurse next door is exactly that & more. The carers are all loving and supportive and will help you in any way they can, small or big! The workers at Nurse next door actually will take your worries and lend a helping hand - it is all about the client and the clients needs. They lend a hand to cook home made meals, clean the simply task that made seem abit to much on your plate some times and generally interact with the family as a lending ear. I as a parent couldn’t be more happier & trusting to welcoming these careers into our home & family. Im so grateful to find some where that actually Cares about your quality of care and will support you every step of the way. They care about you and your family as a whole and will work hard at achieving the goals you have for your family member with the empathy to mentally support these challenges, as well as work closely with you so everyone is on the same page. A very supportive service. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a loving, genuine & effective support service, Michelle & Laura have our family feel support & immensely cared for.
Stacey Swan
We have recently engaged Nurse Next Door, I really liked the approach Lauren had when meeting my Mum. The focus was on finding out what she has stopped doing and would like to start again, rather than being all about the medical side of things. Both Tim and Lauren spent a lot of time talking to me about Nurse Next Door before we made a time to meet. I really appreciated the information they provided and the obvious care they both had with helping my Mum and also me.
