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.
Delivering a WOW Customer Experience
Couldn't ask for a better service team to assist in the well-meaning and loving care of my sister which, of course, brings so much peace of mind and comfort to the family. The NND staff, nursing and administrative, are always available to listen, readily adapt to the needs of clients and families and go above and beyond in their duties on a daily basis. We are all so very grateful - thank you NND.

Sina copes with very difficult situations and moves things in a positive direction. He is peaceful and calm. He is highly intelligent and understands complex problems. He is highly professional and I am so grateful to him for all the work he does and for helping Tom and I communicate better. Tom gets along with him really well. He is an absolute god send.
