Companionship care in Ringwood:
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.

Karyn Peavey
Nurse Next Door has been amazing for my son’s post surgery care. They have been professional and efficient and helped me immensely with wound care and advice. Highly recommend!
Anna Lloyd
Debbie from Nurses Next Door is just lovely. Very kind, patient and understanding. She had gone out of her way to help me and make me feel comfortable as well as help with things that my support coordinator could be doing. She has contacted my GP herself for prescriptions and followed up on other needs.
Melanie Jacobs
We had a date and time booked and the nurse arrived on time, performed the nursing task quickly and efficiently. The reminder we received on the weekend prior so we knew we were definitely booked in was excellent. Great company providing an excellent nursing service.

Shradha Somaia
We really appreciate the wonderful help from the Nurse Next Door carers, who have been a fantastic, reliable support for my mother. We feel very comfortable when she is in their care.
Anita Begg
I changed to nurse next door as previous provider could not supply the same person or consistent time. Many times no one came. I was expecting that this would be the case for other providers . Not so with Nurse next door Tecoma. We now have a nurse driven service ( not all of them are) able to supply consistent carers at the same time each day. An RN came and did the initial assessment of the home and my friends needs. That did not happen previously, it was done over the phone. Not only that their RN’s have driven quality care, making suggestions that transformed our lives. I am an RN myself and l am so impressed with the service. I should have changed ages ago. I am no longer burnt out, feel totally supported and just want to shout out to the whole world, nurse next door is amazing . Thank you guys you saved me and my friend. So much appreciation going your way!!

Have had two nurses from NND at home to dress a leg wound for several weeks, Excellent, professional staff. Proved a great help to me for dressings I could not do due to personal frailties. I would recommend them, anytime.
John Galanos
I can highly recommend these wonderful people. They are very caring, knowledgeable, skilled nurses. Happy to help in anyway they can. We were floundering when mother-in-law came into our care but Michelle and her crew have been great and sorted us out to a large extent. Chris Atkins

Verity Newnham
Mum needed some support after an extended time in hospital after surgery. The support workers have been so lovely and caring and a great fit for us. We would highly recommend Nurse Next Door. They have made a difficult time much easier.
Belinda Clear
Chen and Shae have been amazing at sourcing workers for my constant last minute requests. The support workers I have interacted with have all been incredibly friendly and also greet you with a smile and a willingness to give it their all. I have tried other support worker companies and none of them have been able to provide me the flexibility that Nurse Next Door has. I have already recommended Nurse Next Door to my Support Coordinator and other allied health companies I use.
Lauren Hodgkinson
Nurse next door is an excellent company. They not only give the highest quality of care but match the nurse with the clients needs and personality ensuring they provide not physical care but also emotional support. I would recommend them to anyone looking for care of any kind.
