Health Focus Nursing visits participants across Sunshine, postcode 3020, in the City of Brimbank. We are a home visit service, which means a registered nurse or support worker comes to you rather than asking you to travel to a clinic.
Sunshine has a strong mix of long-settled families and newer arrivals, and a lot of the homes we visit have been lived in by the same family for decades. That matters for care planning, because people are often deeply reluctant to leave a house they have been in for forty years, and our job is to make staying there workable.
Brimbank is one of the larger council areas we cover, and travel across it can be slow at school pick-up times. We build that into rostering rather than arriving late and apologising, which is why we ask about preferred visit windows at the first assessment.
What we deliver
The service we are asked for most in Sunshine is the nurse-led continence assessment. A registered nurse visits, reviews medical and continence history, assesses the functional impact on daily life, and writes the formal report your NDIS planner needs. Reports are written clearly for an NDIS audience, so your planner has what they need.
Alongside that we provide community nursing under NDIS item 0114, covering wound care, catheter management, medication administration, bowel and stoma care and diabetes support. For participants with more complex needs we are registered to deliver high intensity daily personal activities, including complex wound management, enteral feeding, tracheostomy and ventilator management and severe dysphagia management.
On the support side we provide personal care under item 0107, domestic assistance under 0120, and social and community participation under 0125. Dementia support also sits under item 0107, and we also provide palliative care at home and in-home respite for family carers. Participants in Sunshine frequently combine two or three of these rather than taking everything.
Funding and plan types
All services are billed at current NDIS price limits and are available to self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed participants in Sunshine. Continence assessments are funded under Capacity Building, Improved Daily Living. Nursing sits under Core Supports at item 0114. For eligible participants with the relevant funding already in their plan, there is no out-of-pocket cost.
If you are not certain which category your funding sits in, that is normal and it is not something you need to resolve before calling. We check it with you, and if the funding is not there we say so rather than starting a service that cannot be billed.

Call us on 0405 468 427, send the form on this page, or ask your support coordinator to refer. We respond to every enquiry within one business day, and coordinators receive a service agreement within 48 hours. There is currently no waitlist for Sunshine.

Nobody around here asks for help early. By the time someone picks up the phone, they have usually been managing on their own for months. There is no judgement in that call, and no wrong time to make it.

Health Focus Nursing has no waitlist and responds to every enquiry within one business day. Sunshine is within our regular home visit area in the City of Brimbank, so scheduling usually depends on your availability rather than ours. Urgent clinical needs are best raised by phone.

Yes. We take discharge referrals from hospital social workers, discharge planners and ward nurses at Sunshine Hospital and across Western Health, as well as from families directly. If your NDIS plan already includes community nursing, we can usually have a registered nurse at your home in Sunshine within 2 business days of the referral, and sooner for wound or catheter care that cannot wait. Ask the ward to call us on 0405 468 427 before you are discharged, and we will line up the first visit with them.
