June 20, 2022
Do you require community nursing services in Brisbane and the surrounding suburbs, but are failing to find a NDIS registered provider that meets your requirements?
Aspire Hub has a team of friendly experts who are ready to give you the care you deserve.
Who can benefit from community nursing services in Brisbane?
Community nursing services are typically beneficial for those with complex health needs that already require regular assistance from medical professionals. The point of this service is not to replace the other providers or practitioners you deal with, but as a way to manage your health and prevent any conditions related to your disability from getting worse. Community nursing services exist so that a trained professional can keep a track of how you are feeling, and assist you with any difficult tasks relating to your disability, such as tube feeding or catheter care. These services might include (but are not limited to):
- Complete health assessments
- Assistance in wound care and management
- Developing and implementing care and support plans
- Support in palliative care management
- Medication administration and review
It’s important to note that community nursing services will only be funded by the NDIS if the care undertaken by the nurse(s) is related to a participant’s disability. For example, if you have sustained a wound and/or injury that was not directly correlated to your disability, you might not be funded by the NDIS to receive wound management from a community nurse. The NDIS website has examples of what they can and can’t fund in relation to nursing in the home. You can find this by clicking here.
How can I access community nursing services in Brisbane?
If you live in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Logan, Ipswich or Perth and think you’re eligible to receive community nursing services, it’s a good idea to check your NDIS plan and see if you qualify for funding under your Capacity Building budget. This is where nursing care will be funded under your NDIS plan.
If you do not have a Capacity Building budget or have been deemed ineligible by the NDIS to receive community nursing services in Brisbane, you still have options to receive this kind of care. Firstly, you can opt to pay for the care yourself, or you can receive assistance from Queensland’s health care system. The NDIS website has a handy guide on what the health system will fund versus what the NDIS is responsible for providing assistance with. You can find this information here.
