Nursing at home for older people, on your terms

Staying at home is the plan. When you need a nurse to help keep it that way, ours come to you in Wallan, Kilmore, Broadford and Seymour.

What we help with

  • Nurse visits in the first days and weeks after hospital
  • Wound dressings and skin checks
  • Catheter changes and continence care
  • Help managing medicines, as your GP has prescribed
  • Blood pressure and blood sugar checks, with results sent to your GP

How to pay

Nurse By Choice is not a registered aged care provider, so we don’t manage Support at Home or Home Care Package funding ourselves. Free public district nursing may also be available; your GP can tell you.

Questions people ask

Can a nurse visit after I get home from hospital?

Yes. Email us before you leave hospital if you can, and we’ll book the first visit.

Do I need a referral?

Not to pay privately. Some tasks, such as catheter changes, need your doctor’s order, and we’ll help you get it.

Can my Support at Home funding pay for you?

Not at the moment. We see older people as private clients only.
