How we can help
Do I need a referral or assessment to start?
No. You can access our services immediately without any external referrals or medical assessments. We simply conduct a free Caring Consult to understand your safety needs and preferences, and then we can start.
Can I book respite for just a few hours?
Yes. We offer fully flexible shifts. Whether you need three hours to go to the gym and run errands, or two weeks of 24/7 care while you go on holiday, we can build a roster that suits your lifestyle.
Is in-home respite better than a facility?
In home respite is often less disruptive and distressing. Your loved one stays in their own bed, keeps their own routine, and is surrounded by their own comforts while you get the break you need.
Can you support complex medical needs?
Absolutely. If your loved one requires medication management, wound care or mobility assistance, we can assign qualified nursing staff to ensure their needs are met just as safely as they would be in a clinical facility.

I have found Nurse Next Door (NND) very professional yet friendly to deal with. The support staff whom assist me in my daily tasks are wonderful and I have built some amazing relationships with them. Many of the support staff go above and beyond there tasks making each outing memorable and enjoyable. I am privileged to call many within NND close friends rather than staff or support as they are truly invested in their roles to look after, care and encourage clients. I would insist that anyone looking or needing support go with NND as I have never regretted my decision to do so over a year ago. I am not just a client, a number, or another file. I am apart of this wonderful Pink family

I have been with Nurse next door Mackay since returning home to Sarina a few months ago. Carers, Nurses and Administrators have been friendly and helpful while getting used to being in a wheelchair after my motorbike accident. I would recommend this business for its care and compassion for the client.

As l have always been the helper, it is hard for me to ask for help when the tables have turned ! But the Nurse Next Door team have been wonderful (l haven't met a bad one yet). They are ways pleasant and only too happy to help with anything. Absolutely beautiful people right throughout the team, from office staff right to all the nurses. Cheers guys, you are doing a top job!
