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.

I received an aged care package in January of this year. My daughter chose Nurse Next Door as my local provider. It was such an excellent choice. Andrew, one of the principals of Nurse Next Door is also my physio who comes to my place twice a week. His knowledge, care and advice is outstanding. I have had contact with at least 10 to 12 employees of Nurse Next Door. All these people display outstanding care, reliability and professionalism. If any person is looking for a reliable local provider, then I could not recommend any higher than Nurse Next Door. They are a thoroughly caring and professional organisation.

Our experience with mornington peninsula nurse next door has been exceptional. Following our initial meeting with Andrew Hosking we felt supported and listened to regarding our situation with My Aged Care. Andrew was extremely understanding when dealing with our complex situation his knowledge of the process was outstanding and our concerns were quickly and efficiently dealt with, what he could not answer he researched until he found the solution. A special thank you for the wonderful support and follow up with Ella Richardson providing the ongoing care. I would recommend Peninsula wNurse Next Door as a provider.
