How we can help
Will I have the same caregiver every time?
Consistency is vital for personal care. We build a small, dedicated team around you so you are always supported by familiar faces. This ensures you build a professional, trusting relationship and never have to explain your routine to a stranger.
Can I request a male or female caregiver
Yes. Tell us your preference at your Caring Consult, and we'll match you with a caregiver who puts you at ease.
Do I need special equipment?
Not always, but your safety always comes first. Our Registered Nurse or Care Designer can assess your bathroom and recommend equipment, such as a shower chair, grab rail or raised toilet seat, to help reduce the risk of falls.
Can I book personal care just for the mornings?
Yes. Our support is fully flexible to suit your lifestyle. Many clients book a specific "Morning Routine" visit (e.g., 2 hours) to assist with showering, dressing, and breakfast, allowing them to start their day safely and independently.

Each carer that Nurse Next Door sent to support my mum was excellent. Professional, personable and a great cook! I felt she was safe in their care.
Jane Davies
My dear 43-years-old, NDIS pensioner son, has been a client of Nurse Next Door (NND) in Melbourne CBD since 2021. NND has been a wonderful care agency for him in that time. The different NND Carers he has had in these 3 years have generally been excellent for him — On time, disciplined, hard-working, interested, sensitive, supportive, and friendly. NND managers and administrative staff have also been very efficient, effective and most helpful, supportive and respectful in their interactions with us, particularly in their planning, organising, and clear and frequent communication. I highly recommend NND to other people in Melbourne (and elsewhere in Victoria) who may need excellent welfare care for themselves, or family members or friends, in future !
John Austin

Nurse Next Door are true to their word, " Our Talent is Caring' I was in need of assistance with a fragile and complex situation and Nurse Next Door was prompt and at my front door with a positiveness, trustworthiness, a smile and a caring nature . Their methodology, integrity and professionalism ensured that the most fragile and complex situation was not too difficult or out of their scope. Nurse Next Door are skilled, competent, knowledgeable, and resourceful people. The friendly nurses listened, were accommodating, caring, kind and humble; in turn we felt safe, confident and reassured that we were going to be in the hands of good people . The staff at Nurse Next Door presented a health plan and recommendations so that the best possible health outcome was achieved. Nurse Next Door; you have demonstrated good nursing practices. Thank you for preserving the faith of what it means to service community health outreach programs; servicing the isolated, the fragile and vulnerable citizens in the community. Nurse Next Door, you are wonder workers and you do us all proud!
Filona Barbaro
How can I ever thank your company enough. A last minute trip to Melbourne, Nurse next door came to our rescue and were able to accommodate for our son, at the last minute (my fault). I have never used an agency before for my son A seamless, caring and professional service. Nothing was ever too hard. From the initial phone call, through to the accounts, it was so easy and faultless. Our nurse was so caring and professional, she made my son happy and safe. Thank you!! Our trip would have been a nightmare without you.
