Services we offer

Four streams of support for veterans at home

Each stream can be delivered on its own or combined into one coordinated plan managed by the same local team.

  • 1. Nursing care

    Wound and pressure care, medication management and administration, injections, catheter and stoma care, PEG feeding, diabetes and chronic condition monitoring, post-hospital recovery and clinical documentation shared with your GP.

  • 2. Personal care

    Showering and bathing, dressing, grooming, shaving, oral and skin care, continence support, mobility and transfer assistance, and help with morning or evening routines — always at your pace.

  • 3. Domestic assistance

    Vacuuming, mopping, bathroom and kitchen cleaning, laundry and linen changes, meal preparation, grocery shopping and general tidying so your home stays safe and comfortable.

  • 4. Community access

    Transport and accompaniment to doctors' appointments, specialists, pathology, pharmacy, banking, shopping, social clubs and veteran gatherings, including support while you are there.

Respect for your service

Care that fits the way you live

Many veterans tell us they would rather manage alone than have strangers rotating through the house. We keep teams small and consistent, introduce carers before they start, and write the plan around your routine rather than ours.

Because Loving Hands Care is nurse-founded, clinical oversight is not outsourced. A registered nurse assesses you at home, trains the carers on your plan, monitors wounds and medications, and coordinates with your GP, DVA and any hospital team involved.

Partners and carers are supported too. If you also need aged care support, see our aged care services, or read more about our clinical community nursing and in-home care options.
