How we can help
Do you provide transport?
Yes. Your support worker drives you or travels with you to appointments, social visits, shopping and more, and can sit in at appointments to take notes so nothing is missed.
Is this just a taxi service?
No, it is much more. A taxi driver drops you at the kerb. Your caregiver assists you from your front door, helps you into the car, stays with you during the activity if you wish, helps with mobility or bathroom breaks, and makes sure you are settled safely back at home afterwards.
Can I go to evening events?
Yes. Our services are available 24/7, so if you want to attend a wedding, a concert or a family dinner in the evening, we can arrange support to get you there and back safely.
Will the caregiver stay with me?
That is entirely up to you. Some clients prefer their caregiver to stay with them for company and conversation throughout the activity. Others prefer to be dropped off and collected again at a set time. We adapt to your preference.

We were introduced to Michael and Rebecca who were starting their new franchise when our dad was needing in home care. They were so understanding accomodating and listened to what was important to make mum and dad comfortable with carers coming into the home. I appreciated how easy they were to talk to and how they welcomed our feedback and adjusted whatever was needed and organised the most suitable carers. We are very greatful for their personal and wonderful care right through to his recent passing and beyond xxx

We are really greatfull for the nurse next door kiama team since coming on board to assist in the care of my grandparents 84 and 87 both different forms of dementia and multipul other heath problems. From the managment team to the care staff really are amazing and for my grandparents to accept is one thing and to like and interact is another and the nurse next door team have done just that and braught them out of there shell.

I had a nurse from Nurse Next Door stay with me overnight while I did a prep for a procedures the next day. She prepared the medications, monitored my Blood sugar levels and blood pressure, and checked that I was safe all night. It was very comforting and made me feel that I would get through ii, and took away the anxiety. I was better with the nurse than I would have been hospital. I highly recommend this service

Highly recommend Nurse next door..

I feel very honoured to have been the very first client for Nurse Next Door at Kiama! I needed assistance after knee replacement surgery including showering, putting on and taking off surgical stockings and transport to my medical appointments. They also assisted me with some light household duties in the first week or so. Michael, Rebecca and especially Julie are such lovely people and gave me the confidence, reassurance and advice to get back on my feet in a month or so. They were kind enough to make arrangements so I didn't miss out on getting to see Keith Urban in concert again in Wollongong- we had such a fun night! I highly recommend this service - they helped me out so much and we had lots of fun along the way.
