Leora Healthcare’s nursing care services provide safe, clinical support after hospital stays or whenever daily life calls for specialist care.
At Leora Healthcare, our nursing care services provide safe, personalised support, right in the comfort of your own home.
Nursing is provided in consultation with your GPs, therapists and hospital discharge team, extending your hospital’s care into the home and community. Our compassionate registered nurses can also guide and train your family members or support workers, so you’re surrounded by confident, caring hands.
With our consistent, collaborative approach, we aim to keep you well, reduce unnecessary hospital visits and help you enjoy greater independence.
If you require more permanent or ongoing support, we can also help you find disability accommodation or assist you with specific NDIS, aged care or attendant care services.

Nursing Care Frequently Asked Questions
When is nursing care needed at home?
Home nursing care may be recommended for:
- Post-surgery recovery
- Wound care
- Chronic disease management (e.g. diabetes, heart failure)
- Palliative or end-of-life care
- Medication administration (e.g. injections, IV therapy)
What's the difference between a nurse and a support worker?
A registered nurse is a licensed healthcare professional who can assess health conditions, give medications and perform clinical procedures.
A support worker may help with daily activities (bathing, eating or mobility) but usually doesn’t perform medical procedures unless trained or supervised by a healthcare professional.
Leora Healthcare employs both registered nurses and support workers and can provide these services to you.
Do you provide short-term and ongoing care?
Yes, we can provide both. Our nurses can support you for short recovery periods, assist with long-term conditions or help in recovery after hospital discharge.
Can Leora provide training to my family or support workers?
Yes. Our registered nurses can teach you and your caregivers how to manage conditions, use medical equipment, follow dietary guidelines and recognise warning signs that require medical attention.
Do I need a referral from the hospital?
A referral is helpful but not always required. You or your family can contact us directly to request services, and we will coordinate with your hospital care team.
How often will the nurse visit?
This depends on your needs. Visits could be several times a week or as needed for check-ups and procedures. Contact our team so we can discuss your needs and provide a more accurate response.
How much do nursing care services cost?
Your services will be tailored to your individual needs. Costs will depend on your insurance coverage or government funding, such as NDIS or Home Care Package, and the duration of services. Contact our team so we can discuss your needs and provide a personalised quote.
