Home instead of Hospital

Preparing for a hospital admission can often be a challenging and stressful time.

From organising pre-admission medications, to completing pre-operative procedures, such as bowel or isotope preparation, the entire process can be daunting. Add to this travel and accommodation issues for remote or regional patients, and the pre-admission process can become quite overwhelming. Our pre-admission services are designed to help reduce stress and anxiety while getting you ready for your hospital visit.

These preparation services may include:

• Travel and accommodation
• Pre-operative preparation
• Nursing assistance
• Carer assistance
• Private transport
• Medication management
• Weight management
• Hospital admission support
