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
Cannot thank Nurse Next Door enough for their genuine care for my loved one. I am kept up to date and have experienced a high level of personal attention far beyond what i had expected. Magda and her team are very caring and professional.
Natalie Sadler
Magda and all the carers at Nurse Next Door have been fantastic! Their communication has been great, they are reliable and most of all they understand how to best support our family.
Meaghan Mayne
“I recently had Nurse Next Door Home Care Services Macedon Ranges. I couldn’t be happier with the results. The home care & meals for one were prompt, professional, and the final product exceeded my expectations. I would definitely use this service again in the future and recommend it to others.”
Kaylene Rothe
I would leave a 10-star review if I could! Magda's care and compassion along with her exceptional patient clinical care is of the highest standard. I highly recommend :)
Vanessa Patane
I cannot thank Anna enough for the incredible care and support she gave during my recovery after leaving hospital.
Gary Cox
Extremely caring, attentive, always on time and just lovely people. You can really tell they are passionate about not only the physical but also the mental wellbeing of their patients. After spending a month in the Alfred hospital, they gave me the ability to move home with daily dressing changes, wound cleaning and checkups, and their care was by far the best I had received. Thank you for everything Anna, Magda and Sarah ❤️
Beau Williams
How lucky are we? Anna has been looking after my Dad for a few months and he is very impressed ( he is hard to please) with the quality and professional care he receives. He really enjoys how caring Anna is with her lovely and friendly disposition. He feels safe when in her care whether showering at home or out shopping. As a family, we cannot recommend them highly enough.
