Caregiving in Hobart East:
How we can help
How do you select your caregivers?
We use a rigorous screening process that focuses on personality as much as qualifications. We look for individuals who are passionate about Making Lives Better and then pair clients with caregivers who share similar interests and personalities.
Can I have the same caregiver every time?
Yes, consistency is our priority. We strive to provide a small, dedicated team of caregivers so you can build genuine relationships and trust.
Do you provide care for specific conditions like dementia?
Yes. Our caregivers are trained to support clients living with Alzheimer's, dementia and other age related conditions. We focus on ability rather than disability, creating a safe environment that adapts to changing needs.
I am looking for a job as a caregiver. Where do I apply?
We would love to hear from you. The "Book a Consult" form is intended for those seeking care, so if you are interested in a caregiving role, please visit our Careers Page to view our open positions and apply directly with our recruitment team.

Nurse Next Door East provides exceptional care and support and goes above and beyond to provide outstanding care for my loved one. My uncle is not just a client but a person who has interests, family life, connections to the community and Nurse Next Door East ensures that he can still enjoy life with their support. Nurse Next Door East provides a wholistic approach not only supports in the home but also with health. Petra and Sarah are both nurses and it is reassuring for me to know if my uncle is unwell the carers will flag this with Petra and Sarah then a follow up visit is done. I live 2.5 hours away so this gives me peace of mind. Communication is honest and super prompt and it doesnt matter what time of the day I contact, I will always get a very prompt reply or phonecall. Nurse Next Door East not only supports our loved ones needing care but also the family. Words cannot express how how appreciative and happy we are that you are all involved in our lives. My uncle has a fabulous team around him to ensure he can live his best life. Thank you for what you do and who you are.

We have recently changed my Dad's care arrangements to the Nurse Next Door. This is the best thing we have done for him. The care he gets from the team of carers is fantastic. From the first consultation to the weekly schedule and updates in his care, we could not ask for a more professional service. The communication is fantastic, the care is consistent and his house feels clean. But most of all my Dad is happy, he actually looks forward to his carers coming now. The Nurse Next Door has gone over and above to accommodate all of Dads needs. I can highly recommend The Nurse Next Door for anyone wanting professional and compassionate care for their family.

I have a brother that was discharged from hospital in January 2026. My brother being on the NDIS. Nurse next door have been so professional with their Supports. Nothing was a problem, always giving me updates and because of the quick and prompt responses it was easy to iron out issues that popped up. I have felt very comfortable knowing he is supported. My brother has liked and felt very comfortable with all the staff. This is big as he is a gentleman that prior to hospital lived by himself for many years and is very routine focussed. To have Support staff sleeping over night in is home was huge. I feel very grateful for their services, the overnights are not need now but still having support during the day. I can not speak more highly of the company. Well done!
