Companionship care in Ballarat:
How we can help
Can my companion drive me places?
Yes. Your caregiver can provide transportation in their vehicle or yours, whether it's a trip to a local club, a medical appointment or a scenic drive, getting you there and back safely.
Will I get the same person every time?
Yes. You are paired with a primary caregiver so you can get to know each other and build a genuine, trusting relationship over time.
Is this just for people who live alone?
Not at all. Many clients live with family who work during the day. Companionship care keeps your loved one engaged, safe and happy while you are at work or taking a break.
Can we just stay home?
Yes. Your caregiver can assist with hobbies, look through photo albums, play music or simply sit and chat over a cup of tea, all from the comfort of home.

Everyone of them not only support my husband but also myself. All staff are totally accommodating to my hisbands needs and undertake every task in such ease and completely professional. No matter what I have asked around my husbands support they all have been completely accommodating with no fuss just happy to help. I could not recommend nurse next door highly enough.

What a great idea, it has been needed for a long time. I have been doing aged care 20years, my family didn’t put my sister in a residential as we looked after her. I see so many people who do not need to be in residential with all the red tape. I have helped my nextdoor neighbours to get assistance at home. Wow keep up the good work.
