We visit you across Melbourne, Geelong and surrounding areas for continence assessments, community nursing and day-to-day disability support. Registered nurses. No waitlist.
I started this practice because too many families were handed a folder of forms instead of a phone call back. We answer the phone. We turn up when we say we will. That is most of the job.

These are the services we get asked about most. The full list, with NDIS item numbers, is below and on each service page.
A registered nurse comes to you, talks through what is actually going on, and writes the formal report your planner needs. Most of our reports are accepted the first time they are submitted.

Health Focus Nursing was started by a registered nurse who was tired of seeing NDIS participants passed between providers who never quite followed through. We are a small, women-owned practice, and we are LGBTQ+ friendly by design, not as a marketing line.
We serve Melbourne, Geelong and the suburbs in between. Our nurses hold AHPRA registration, our support workers are matched to you specifically, and if a plan changes, we change with it.
Here is exactly what happens after you reach out.
Call, use the form, or have your coordinator send a referral. We respond within one business day.
A nurse or support worker visits your home, listens to what you actually need, and builds a plan around your funding.
Services start on the schedule you agreed to. Billing runs directly through your NDIS plan.
We were hesitant to bring in outside care for our loved one with dementia, but Health Focus Nursing has exceeded our expectations. Their team took the time to understand her preferences and it genuinely feels like family now.
SSarah T.Client's Family Member
We were struggling to care for our loved one with complex health needs. Their expert nurses and personalised approach have given us peace of mind.
The continence assessment was thorough and the report was accepted by my NDIS planner straight away. The nurse was professional and made the process easy to understand.
Thanks to Health Focus Nursing I have been able to maintain my independence. Their team helped me manage my chronic condition and I have seen real improvement.
As a support coordinator I have referred several clients to Health Focus. They are responsive and their reports are always comprehensive and on time.
