Who is home nursing care for?

Home nursing care provides support for people with diverse health needs. Whether you need help managing medications, caring for wounds, or monitoring chronic conditions, nursing services can offer the assistance you require in the comfort of your own home.

What qualifications do in-home nurses need to work with HomeMade?

To provide nursing care at home, a person will need a current nursing registration with AHPRA and one or more years of experience.

Can I use my current nurse or care provider with HomeMade?

Self-management means you have choice and control over your home care nursing. So if you’d like to continue receiving services from a specific nurse or care provider, we will work with you to add them to our approved network. Please note that your nurse or care provider will need an ABN, a police check, relevant qualifications and insurance to onboard with HomeMade.

How do I organise home nursing care with my Support at Home funding through HomeMade?

In order to access home nursing and care through Support at Home funding, you will need to complete an aged care assessment that establishes your needs. If assessed as eligible, you can sign up to HomeMade and, if approved, start self-managing your funding.

How do I know if I need home nursing care or just personal care?

In-home nursing care is designed for individuals who need assistance with medical and health-related conditions. Whereas personal care services support those who require help with hygiene-related tasks such as bathing, showering, and toileting.

HomeMade have been very helpful. Being new to my aged care package, HomeMade have very successfully guided me through the program to gain access to so many useful things, such as food delivery, exercise programs and help around the house and garden. I still have more items to access, but have no doubt it will happen.
