Recovering effectively requires consistent support. Our qualified nurses bring clinical wound care to your home, treating surgical wounds and ulcers to prevent complications and promote healing.
Nurse-Led Wound Care & Management at Home
Our qualified nurses use evidence based protocols to manage complex conditions, reduce infection risk, and promote healing in collaboration with your GP.
- Post Operative Wound Care: Expert management of surgical incisions to ensure safe recovery and detect infection.
- Chronic Wound Management: Specialised care for slow healing wounds like venous leg and diabetic foot ulcers.
- Pressure Injury Care: Proactive prevention and treatment of pressure sores for clients with limited mobility.
- Suture & Staple Removal: Professional removal of stitches or staples at home to save you a trip to the doctor.
- Clinical Monitoring: Education on spotting signs of infection and managing the wound site between visits.
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?
We can work with the supplies you have, or we can coordinate directly with your pharmacy to have the correct clinical dressings and bandages delivered to your home. Our nurses will also assess your wound at every visit to ensure the products being used are effectively promoting healing.
Can you treat diabetic wounds?
Yes. We have specialised experience in diabetic wound management and treating diabetic foot ulcers. Our nurses take a holistic approach, treating the wound while also monitoring blood glucose levels and providing education to prevent future complications.
Do I need a referral to book this service?
No. You can book our nurse-led team privately without a referral. However, for complex wounds, we will require discharge summaries or care plans from your doctor. This allows us to collaborate with your GP and ensure continuity of clinical care.
