Nurse-led home care, Brisbane North

Domestic assistance at home

Domestic assistance is practical help with the household jobs that become harder with age, illness or reduced strength. A clean, safe home lowers the risk of falls and infection, and it means you can spend your energy on the things you enjoy.

Who it is for

Domestic assistance suits older people who find household tasks difficult because of limited mobility, fatigue, illness or reduced strength. It is also a common starting point for people who are not yet ready for personal care but want some help to keep things running.

More than a cleaner

Our domestic assistance staff are part of a nurse-led team. If they notice something that concerns them, such as food going uneaten, a new trip hazard or you seeming unwell, they pass it on and a member of our clinical team follows up. That extra set of eyes gives families real peace of mind.

Transport to appointments

Getting to the GP, specialist, pharmacy or shops is often harder than people expect once driving stops. We can help you get to appointments and errands, and support you while you are there if you need it.
