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.

Sina from Nurse Next Door has been so amazing with my son Tom. He has gone above and beyond to support him being independent and has helped so much. 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. Thank you Nurse Next Door. Fiona and Beth have really been so caring and understanding. They are good at thinking up solutions. Our experience with Nurse Next Door is all positives.

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.
