Companionship care in Macksville:
How we can help
Can my companion drive me places?
Yes. Your caregiver can provide transportation in their vehicle or yours, whether it's a trip to a local club, a medical appointment or a scenic drive, getting you there and back safely.
Will I get the same person every time?
Yes. You are paired with a primary caregiver so you can get to know each other and build a genuine, trusting relationship over time.
Is this just for people who live alone?
Not at all. Many clients live with family who work during the day. Companionship care keeps your loved one engaged, safe and happy while you are at work or taking a break.
Can we just stay home?
Yes. Your caregiver can assist with hobbies, look through photo albums, play music or simply sit and chat over a cup of tea, all from the comfort of home.

Agnes and her team helped my father and me as he battled a very aggressive degenerative disease. After going through all the bureaucracy of MyAgedCare and other government departments, it was so much easier to get going with Agnes and the carer who worked with us. They were very attentive to any issues, and reassured us along the way. I very much recommend Nurse Next Door Coffs Harbour, would go with them again in a heartbeat.

After a while in hospital I returned home and needed assistance doing everything and Agnes and her staff were more than helpful for up to 6hrs a day for the first 2 weeks and continued on decreasing the hours up till now. I am more than grateful for the service I have received and I would recommend Agnes to anyone needing care.

I recently had the sad experience of visiting a friend who was receiving end of life care from "Nurse Next Door" in Woolgoolga. Agnes and her team of amazing carers went way beyond what I myself could ever provide someone in this situation. The care and patience given to my friend was something I will never forget. If you have anyone who needs special care for a loved one I cannot recommend these wonderful people enough. Thank you to every one of those who cared for Carmen. Judy McLachlan

Agnes is so happy and very caring, also very passionate about her work. Agnes has been a huge inspiration for me as I feel safe, confiding in her for any health concerns I may be experiencing with my catheter, also new ways for my self esteem to improve the best possible outcomes for me.
