- Clinical Oversight: Rosters overseen by Registered Nurses to identify and escalate health changes.

How we can help
Is this "live-in" care or shift work?
We offer flexible models to suit your needs, including rotating shifts, sleepover and overnight care, so someone is always alert and available. If live in care, where one caregiver stays with you, sounds like a better fit, just call our local care team on 1300 600 247 and we'll help you find the right option for your situation.
Is this cheaper than a nursing home?
24/7 home care is a premium service because it offers a 1 to 1 carer ratio, compared to the 1 to 15 ratio often found in facilities. While it's a financial investment, it allows your loved one to keep their home, their pets and their independence, which many families find priceless.
Can I use my government funding (Support at Home or NDIS)?
Yes. While 24/7 care often requires a private contribution due to the high number of hours, we can fully utilise your Support at Home funding or NDIS budget to cover a significant portion of the costs. If you're still waiting on approval, or would simply like to start sooner, you're welcome to begin privately and switch across once your funding is in place. Your Care Designer will help you structure the budget to make the most of your available government funds and keep your out of pocket expense to a minimum.
How quickly can we start?
We can often organise a 24/7 care team within 24-48 hours. Because this service can be accessed privately, there are no government assessments or waiting lists to navigate before we begin.
What if a caregiver calls in sick?
One of the biggest benefits of choosing a managed provider like ours is reliability. We have a large team of staff and support available around the clock, so if a regular caregiver is unwell, we'll arrange a replacement as quickly as possible and make sure you're never left without care.
Can we book this for short-term respite?
Absolutely. We provide 24/7 care for short periods, such as post-operative recovery or while family caregivers go on holiday. You do not need to sign a long-term contract.

Rev and her team are amazing! I cannot thank them enough for the kindness, consideration and care they show - everyone goes above and beyond and they make a huge difference! They have a very challenging role but everyone from NND approaches their work with a smile and good humour. Special thanks to Ezra, Vicky, Peter, Pinky and Ken, you have all been so wonderful to my family and we feel lucky to have had you as part of our team :)

When my mother was rendered incapable after some mini-strokes, and before she could be moved into full-time care, we used the services of Nurse Next Door to provide 24 hour nursing at home. We were delighted with both the quality of care they provided, and in their organisation and administration. They claim to provide "peace of mind" and in my experience they did exactly that. I can whole-heartedly recommend them.

I’ve been a customer of Nurses Next door now for the last 2.5 year. I’m high needs as a Paramedic T4 client I need a lot of assistance daily. In that time they haven’t let me down. Glen and his wonderful team have always been reliable, addressing my needs and concerns! From their Management team To their Key Nurses And not forgetting their wonderful carers, my daily needs are always met!! Thanks Nurses Next Door!
Clinton Dickson
Rev and the team, I’m not even sure how to put into words how helpful they were through what was a very hard time. My family were in crisis and I needed to organise 24/7 supervision in a matter of a few days. Rev gave me peace of mind and become a supportive partner in this journey and I am completely grateful. The nurse that came was kind and caring and exactly what we needed during this tough time. Thank you!

Rev, Glenn and the team at Nurse Next Door have literally SAVED us! They have been the very best to work with - providing excellent staff for my severely disabled and chronically unwell brother. Even more importantly, they are not just nice when things are going well, but take action and make changes when things are not working out. I am very picky, and my brother needs 24/7 high intensity care, and I cannot recommend Revital at Nurse Next Door highly enough. She's the best of the best.
Julienne Verhagen
The team at Nurse Next Door Melbourne South East are an amazing team of professionals that support with kindness and professionalism. Revital, Heather and the team go above and beyond, and their motto of Our Talent is Caring is more than a motto it is how they provide support.
