Nursing care at home, when you need it

Your nursing care is delivered by registered nurses, from wound care to medication administration.

You don’t need a referral, or your funding sorted, to talk to us.

Worried about cost? For eligible older people, nursing at home is funded as clinical care under Support at Home with no contribution, and where it is not funded we give clear, itemised costs up front. See how cost and funding work →

Clinical care, brought into the home

From a single visit for a dressing change to ongoing clinical support, the care comes to you.

Wound care

Wounds heal better with the right care done consistently. Our registered nurses:

  • manage dressings, surgical wounds, pressure injuries and chronic wounds at home
  • watch for the early signs a wound needs review
  • coordinate with the GP or hospital team treating it

Medication administration

Medications get complicated after a hospital stay, or with several conditions at once. Our registered nurses:

  • administer and review medications, webster packs and injections
  • check that what was prescribed is what is actually being taken
  • coordinate with the GP and pharmacy

Catheter and continence care

Common in later life, and well managed with the right clinical care. Our registered nurses:

  • provide catheter care and changes at home
  • support continence with dignity and discretion
  • watch for early signs of infection and coordinate with the GP

Ongoing health support

Chronic conditions need a steady eye on the things that matter. Our registered nurses:

  • monitor blood pressure, blood sugar, skin, weight and mood at home
  • catch changes early
  • adjust the plan with the GP before a small problem becomes a hospital admission

After surgery or a hospital stay

Recovery often needs clinical care for a while. Our post-operative nursing at home covers:

  • wound and drain care
  • pain relief and medication administration
  • monitoring for complications, working with the hospital team

When the whole homecoming needs support, our coming home from hospital service brings it together.

Registered nurses, a team you know, working with your GP

Delivered by registered nurses

Nursing visits are delivered by registered nurses. Wanessa Arraes, our Clinical Lead, writes and reviews every care plan. When something changes, a nurse sees it and acts.

The same skilled team

Our nurses and care workers are directly employed by Supported Home, so the person sees familiar faces who know their history. When a nurse is away, another nurse from our team covers the visit. Continuity makes clinical care safer.

Alongside your GP and treating team

We coordinate with the GP, hospital team, pharmacy and any specialists involved, and everyone works from the same plan. When a visit raises a concern, our nurses contact the GP or treating team directly.

What nursing care at home costs (and how funding can help)

Cost is usually the first question, and it is a fair one. It depends on how much nursing is needed and how often.

For eligible older people, in-home nursing is funded as clinical care under Support at Home, with no contribution toward funded nursing visits. Funding follows an assessment of what the person needs.

Not eligible, or would rather arrange care privately? We provide private nursing, with clear, itemised costs before anything starts.

Eligibility and funding are decided through My Aged Care. We can talk you through the options for your situation. For current pricing, see our Pricing page. Call our clinical intake team on (07) 3517 0808.

Frequently asked questions

What nursing care can you provide at home?
Our registered nurses provide wound care, medication administration, clinical monitoring for chronic conditions, post-operative care and general health support at home. Care is planned and reviewed by a registered nurse, and we coordinate with your GP and any specialists. Call (07) 3517 0808 to talk through what is needed.
How much does nursing care at home cost?
It depends on how much nursing is needed and how often, so the best answer comes from a short conversation about the person’s situation. For eligible older people, in-home nursing is funded as clinical care under Support at Home, and clinical supports including nursing carry no contribution. Where it is not funded, we provide it privately with clear, itemised costs given up front. Call (07) 3517 0808 and we will walk you through it. Current pricing is on our Pricing page.
Can Support at Home funding cover nursing care at home?
Yes, for eligible older people, following an assessment of what the person needs. Nursing is funded as clinical care under Support at Home, and clinical supports including nursing carry no contribution. Eligibility and funding are decided through My Aged Care, not by us, and we can help you understand what your funding may cover and what the next step is. Call (07) 3517 0808.
Do I need a referral or an assessment to get a nurse at home?
No. You can talk to us before any referral or assessment, and we can arrange private nursing without waiting for funding. If you want care funded under Support at Home, an assessment is part of that process, and we can point you to it. Call (07) 3517 0808.
Can you do wound care and dressings at home?
Yes. Our registered nurses manage dressings, surgical wounds, pressure injuries and chronic wounds at home, on a schedule that suits the person, and watch for the early signs that a wound needs review. We coordinate with the GP or hospital team treating it.
Can you help manage medications at home?
Yes. Our registered nurses administer and review medications, manage webster packs and injections, and check that what was prescribed is what is actually being taken. We coordinate with the GP and pharmacy, which matters most when someone is managing several conditions or has just come home from hospital.
Will the same nurse come each time?
As much as possible, yes. Our nurses and care workers are directly employed by Supported Home, so we send a small, consistent team who get to know the person and their history. Continuity makes clinical care safer and easier.
What areas do you cover?
We cover greater Brisbane, Moreton Bay, Logan, the Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast. If you are checking whether we reach a particular suburb, call (07) 3517 0808 and we will confirm.
