Nursing Care in Craigieburn
The most useful thing our Craigieburn nurses do is often not the visit itself. It is training the support worker you already know to do the task safely, then checking in. You get continuity, and your nursing hours go a lot further.
A nurse's job under the NDIS is not only the clinical task itself. It is also writing the care plan, teaching the people around you to follow it safely, and reviewing it when your health changes. That second half is what decides whether your care holds together between visits, and it is the part almost nobody sees on an invoice.

For some tasks, yes — once one of our registered nurses has trained them on your care and signed them off as competent. That is called delegation, and it is how most people make nursing funding last. Some things stay with the nurse, and we will tell you plainly which ones.
Almost always. Nursing time is charged at nursing rates and support worker time is not. Where a task can safely be delegated, delegating it buys you the same care for less of your plan — and the nurse still checks in on how it is going.
