Care management in Hunter Valley:
How we can help
What is a Care Designer?
A Care Designer is always a senior Registered Nurse. They are your dedicated partner who develops and oversees your care plan, manages the roster, and ensures we are meeting your specific goals, whether that is remaining independent at home or accessing the community.
How does Care Management work with the new Support at Home Program?
Under Support at Home, Care Management is a vital service to help you coordinate your distinct funding budgets (Clinical, Independence, and Everyday Living). We help you plan your quarterly budget so you don't run short on essential services.
Can I access Care Management privately?
Absolutely. Many families choose to pay privately for a Care Designer to oversee a loved one's care, especially if they live interstate or have complex medical needs. We provide the same level of clinical oversight and advocacy regardless of how the service is funded.
Can you support both NDIS and Aged Care in one household?
Yes. Mixed funding households are common. If one family member is on the NDIS and another is accessing Support at Home, your Care Designer can coordinate rosters to minimise disruption and streamline communication.
Do you charge for Care Management?
Yes. For Support at Home clients, this is paid from your funding budget. For NDIS participants, it is covered under relevant support items. For private clients, we offer a transparent fee structure. We ensure you understand all costs before care begins.
What happens if there is an emergency after hours?
The Care Services Team is available 24/7, 365 days a year. If a crisis occurs or urgent advice is needed, you can call and speak with a team member who knows your care plan.

Always on Time and goes above and beyond,great communication a pleasure to deal with highly recommend nurse next door
Ben John james
Not sure who recommended Nurse Next Door could have been MCCS who was our package provider at the time. We’ve since changed to Trilogy and I self manage Peters Package. I now have respite for 22 hours per month and we have a wonderful male person who looks after my husband while I sew in 2 groups and the last respite on the third Friday of every month I shop or meet someone for a coffee! This service and the male carer have been amazing so caring with Peter nothing is a bother and it means I can relax and unwind away from my job as a carer.The company have been wonderful organising hours days etc . Trilogy have been excellent as well and I’m not doing anymore than I was doing with the previous provider which was costing me 25% more in Admin costs!! A big Thankyou to everyone concerned .🙏🤗👏🦋💐

Nurse next door has had a dramatic impact on my life. The staff are caring, kind and always ready to help. Over the last few months this has enabled me to work at improving my health situation with the support of Nurse Next Door. It is wonderful to know that they are always available to help. I would recommend Nurse Next Door to anyone who needs support with their situation.
