What is in-home nursing care?
In-home nursing care is clinical care provided by nurses in your own home, instead of in a hospital or clinic. If you are recovering from surgery, living with a chronic condition, or need regular health checks and monitoring. Home nursing and care supports your health while helping you stay comfortable in familiar surroundings. If you are rebuilding strength and confidence after illness, injury or a hospital stay, our Restorative Care pathway may also be a helpful short-term support option.

Funding your in-home nursing care
There are a number of ways to access at-home nursing services, and many are government-funded. Under Support at Home, nursing is classified as Clinical Care which means all costs come out of your approved Support at Home budget. This means you won’t need to make a personal financial contribution. The Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP)and Out of Hospital Care Program suits lower-level needs. You can also choose to pay privately if you would like to start services sooner or prefer not to wait for an assessment.
