How we can help
Who performs the wound care?
Basic wound care can be performed by our qualified caregivers with the oversight from the Care designer. All complex wound care and wound management is performed by our qualified Registered Nurses (RNs) or Enrolled Nurses (ENs). They are currently registered with AHPRA and trained in strict aseptic techniques and infection control to ensure your safety.
Do I need to buy my own dressings?
Not necessarily. We can work with the supplies you already have, or coordinate directly with your pharmacy to have the right clinical dressings and bandages delivered to your home. Our nurses also assess your wound at every visit to make sure the products being used are supporting healing.
Can you treat diabetic wounds?
Yes. We have specialised experience in diabetic wound management, including diabetic foot ulcers. Our nurses take a holistic approach, treating the wound itself while also monitoring blood glucose levels and providing education to help prevent future complications.
Do I need a referral to book this service?
No, you can book our nurse led team privately without a referral. For complex wounds, we will ask for discharge summaries or care plans from your doctor, so we can collaborate with your GP and keep your clinical care consistent.

Gracely She is very diligent and inspiring support worker who approaches her duties by fully considering the needs of the client. She always considers that the safety of the client is paramount. She helps me to understand the new technology that impacts on my daily life. This technology can take many different forms. For example, this could involve travelling to activities outside my residence and in the wider community.

“Nurse Next Door” the name says it all, I was amazed by the efficiency and prompt service of their clinical nurse who administered one of my elderly clients' pressure sore within 24 hours of a phone call. She was not only dedicated to her work, but also kind at heart and empathetic. The nurse provided additional care and attention by taking time to purchase medicated bandage upon assessment of the pressure sore. The nurse also patiently directed their family members to wound dress their mother themselves. I would highly recommend any health care service providers to use “Nurse Next Door” for effective treatment and patient satisfaction.
