Concerned that your NDIS plan doesn't mention nursing specifically?
Nursing services can be funded by both Core and Capacity Building budgets in your NDIS plan, which means it's very possible you're able to fund nursing services and don't even know it!
Give us a call today to learn more.

How do I know if nursing services are right for me?
Your needs are unique, and there's no one answer to that question. Your best bet is to book in a short consultation with Amy, who will be able to assess your specific situation and help you figure out if you're a good fit for our nursing services.
Who is Amy?
Amy brings eighteen years of knowledge from the nursing field, as well as lived experience with cerebral palsy (CP) - her twin sons were both diagnosed with CP at 18 months of age.
Amy’s lived experience has enabled her to gain a sound understanding of the disability sector, paediatric health settings both acute and community and the NDIS. Amy understands the experiences of individuals and families from diagnosis to beyond, and the challenges of navigating disability support services and the NDIS.
Amy also has a professional background in mental health, and she considers this to be a great passion of hers. “If a parent or carer is mentally healthy, that goes a long way to being able to care for their children or engage in ongoing therapies.”
