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
“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.”

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.

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
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 ❤️
