How we can help
Is this different from a taxi?
Yes, significantly. Your caregiver assists you from your front door, into the car and to your destination, staying with you if you would like company, helping with mobility, and making sure you are settled safely back home afterwards.
Can you drive my car?
Yes. If you prefer your own vehicle, your caregiver can drive it provided it is comprehensively insured. Alternatively, they can use their own vehicle, which is fully insured for business use, and we can accommodate walkers and foldable wheelchairs.
Will you stay with me during the appointment?
That is entirely up to you. Many clients appreciate having a companion in the waiting room, or even during the consultation, for extra support. If you would rather have privacy, we can wait in the car or return to collect you at a set time.
Can we make multiple stops?
Yes. This is your time, so if you want to visit the doctor, stop at the chemist and grab a coffee on the way home, we are happy to accommodate your schedule.

I honestly can’t speak highly enough of the incredible team at Nurse Next Door. From the moment they started caring for my grandparents, they went above and beyond in every possible way. No task was ever too big or too small — their carers showed up every day with kindness, compassion, and a level of care that truly made them feel like part of our family. Behind the scenes, Erica and Brendan made everything so easy to manage — always available, always approachable, and genuinely invested in helping us navigate things. It’s rare to come across a team of people who care so deeply about what they do, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their loved ones.
Rachel Fabbro
We have had an exceptionally positive experience with Nurse Next Door and cannot speak highly enough of the care provided to our daughter. Brendan, Erica, and the entire team consistently deliver a high standard of care, with genuine attention to every aspect of our daughter’s needs. The carers are professional, compassionate, and respectful, and they integrate seamlessly into our family home in a way that makes everyone feel supported and at ease. Communication has been outstanding. Brendan and Erica are efficient, approachable, and always just a message away if we have questions or need guidance. The staffing team is equally impressive — prompt, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. Even when changes are required at short notice, they always ensure care is covered, which has been invaluable for our family. We are deeply grateful for the ongoing support, reliability, and kindness shown to our daughter and to us as a family. The level of service and care provided has made a meaningful difference in our lives, and we cannot thank the team enough.

The team from Nurse Next Door have been amazing in helping to support my husband Russell as we navigate through Russell's disability needs.. We can't fault their level of care, empathy and just honest to goodness kindness and understanding of his needs, frustrations and quest for improving quality of both our lives. Both Russell and I highly recommend this service.

Nurse Next Door is a valuable company for our aging population and district in general. This team employs experienced carers that, in my family's time of need, helped to facilitate a diagnosis that was crucial to our loved one. This enabled us to prepare treatment. Nurse Next Door are providers as well as carers, which makes the administration of care easier on the family. This is a relief when navigating the confusion involved with understanding what is available for the level of care required. Our family member was specifically diagnosed with a disease which ensured further funding was sourced so that they may stay at home to feel secure. Our experience was beautifully managed with this company. End of life care is a particularly challenging time for the people involved. Nurse Next Door were there every step of the way. I can't recommend or thank them enough. In memory of Mum XO
