Companionship care in Glen Waverley:
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.

I can highly recommend these wonderful people. They are very caring, knowledgeable, skilled nurses. Happy to help in anyway they can. We were floundering when mother-in-law came into our care but Michelle and her crew have been great and sorted us out to a large extent. Chris Atkins

Debbie from Nurses Next Door is just lovely. Very kind, patient and understanding. She had gone out of her way to help me and make me feel comfortable as well as help with things that my support coordinator could be doing. She has contacted my GP herself for prescriptions and followed up on other needs.

Anita Begg
The nursing team at Nurse Next Door are friendly, helpful and professional in caring for me. I have confidence in them and know they will be there for me when I need medical assistance. I am on the government End of Life Pathway Program for people who have less than 3 months left to live. Nurse Next Door has spent time getting to know me and my wife personally to ensure they know our requirements and anticipate what future needs we may have. They have also offered to assist us in many other ways as I am be cared for in my home. This takes a big burden off of our shoulders to know that we are well supported in difficult times.

Nurses next Door was an amazing service. Debbie provided that extra time with us to understand our grandson's needs which meant a lot to us. Nurses next door provided a very professional service. As a parent, you always feel that no one can look after your child as well as you. Debbie and her team showed so much care towards the job of looking after my grandson that it helped put my mind and heart at ease. Thank you so much :)

Excellent nurses. Not only do the nurses do what they’re tasked to do, they also give you a boost with their friendly chat and their genuine care...
Nathan AJM
Chen and Shae have been amazing at sourcing workers for my constant last minute requests. The support workers I have interacted with have all been incredibly friendly and also greet you with a smile and a willingness to give it their all. I have tried other support worker companies and none of them have been able to provide me the flexibility that Nurse Next Door has. I have already recommended Nurse Next Door to my Support Coordinator and other allied health companies I use.
