How we can help
How soon should I book post-operative care?
We recommend booking as soon as your surgery date is confirmed. This allows us to prepare your home and match the right team to your specific needs. However, we understand that medical schedules change, and we can often accommodate last-minute requests if your discharge date moves.
Do I need a Nurse or a Caregiver?
This depends on the complexity of your recovery. A caregiver is well suited to help with mobility, meals, hygiene and medication prompts. If you require injections, complex wound dressings or clinical monitoring, we will assign a registered nurse. Many clients combine both for complete support.
Is there a minimum booking time?
No, our service is flexible. You can book a Settle-in Service for just the day of discharge, or ongoing support for several weeks. There are no lock in contracts, so you can simply use the service until you regain your strength and independence.
Delivering a WOW Customer Experience
Thank you to all the team for caring for my brother through late stage MND. Your staff were exceptional through an extremely difficult time for my brother and our family. We could not have asked for better care. I would highly recommend Kristal who went above and beyond for my brother and the family. Thank you again. We could not have gotten through without you. 🙏

Chris O'Brien
I hired the services of Nurse Next Door to be a "buddy" for my sister, to take her for a walk & coffee once per week. Their business works in a very courteous and professional manner, keeping me informed of any minor adjustments in their plan. So thank you very much Kristal and your team. Best of luck. Garry

Hemi Adams
I was so relieved to find out about Nurses Next Door. It was the help I needed for my parents and having met Krystal and Oscar gave me peace of mind. Nurses next door can cover from nursing capabilities to disability and aged care. I came with specific requirements and they gave exactly what my parents needed - social care, company, and a lot of help from their doctor's appointments. I highly recommend Nurses Next Door and if you live in the North Shore area, Krystal and Oscar can provide you or your loved ones the best care.
Mylene Recio
Kristal and team are amazing! Their care, compassion & professionalism are second to none. We engaged their services following medical advice of additional care required for my Mum late last year and they could not have provided better support, care and guidance. Only regret is we wish we knew them earlier!

Kristal & her Ku-Ring-Gai Nurse Next Door team have been absolutely amazing. From the first phone call to starting care was a seamless and easy process, the team swiftly started care and have never missed a beat. They have kept the family updated with all the stages and changes of my MIL and always make sure she is receiving the best care, support & love. I cannot recommend nurse next door enough! Their slogan really is true. “Our Talent is Caring”. Thank you Kristal x
