Can I get palliative care at home through the NDIS?

Yes. If palliative care is required due to your disability and is deemed reasonable and necessary, NDIS funding can be used for home-based clinical support and personal care.

What services are included in home-based palliative care?

Our services include pain and symptom management, clinical nursing oversight, personal care with dignity, and emotional support for both the participant and their family.

Is palliative care only for the final days of life?

No. Palliative care can be introduced at any stage of a life-limiting illness to help manage symptoms and improve the overall quality of life.

Expert Dementia Support & In-Home Care in Sydney

Living with dementia requires a support system that prioritises safety, familiarity, and dignity. At Nursed, we provide expert dementia care at home, tailored to the unique needs of NDIS participants in Sydney. Our highly experienced team focuses on maintaining independence while ensuring clinical safety in a comfortable environment.

Specialist Support for Early-Onset and Advanced Dementia

Dementia affects everyone differently, which is why a “one size fits all” approach does not work. We provide dedicated support for various conditions, including Early-Onset Dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and vascular dementia. Our goal is to provide stability and reduce the stress often associated with cognitive decline.

We work in collaboration with Dementia Australia and local health districts under NSW Health to stay updated on the latest evidence-based care strategies.

How Our Highly Experienced Team Helps:

Cognitive Stimulation:

Engaging activities designed to maintain memory and cognitive function for as long as possible.

Routine Management:

Establishing predictable daily schedules to reduce anxiety and confusion.

Safety Monitoring:

Implementing home safety strategies to prevent falls and wandering.

Behavioural Support:

Compassionate management of the psychological symptoms associated with dementia.

Clinical Governance:

Oversight by Registered Nurses to manage co-existing medical conditions, similar to our Complex Care model.

Nurse-Led Care for Peace of Mind

Our dementia services are led by AHPRA Registered Nurses who ensure that every support worker is specifically trained in dementia-specific communication and safety protocols. For families requiring temporary relief, we also offer Respite Care Sydney options to ensure your loved one remains in safe hands while you take a necessary break

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between private care and NDIS care?

Private care is paid for out-of-pocket or through private insurance, allowing for immediate start and total flexibility. NDIS Disability Care is government-funded and requires an approved plan and specific goals.

Do I need a doctor's referral for private in-home care?

No. You can contact us directly to begin services. However, for clinical tasks like Complex Care, we will work with your GP or specialist to follow your prescribed medical protocols.

Can I use private care while waiting for my NDIS plan approval?

Yes. Many participants use our private services as a "bridge" to ensure they have support while the NDIA processes their application.

Is private care more expensive than NDIS-funded care?

Our private rates are competitive and transparent. We provide a clear fee schedule during your free initial consultation so there are no hidden costs.

How do you ensure the quality of private carers?

Every member of our team undergoes rigorous background checks and is supervised by Registered Nurses, maintaining the high standards of the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission even for private clients.
