Our Live in Care & High Care Case Managers
Page 6 of 11
Our in home Live in Care and 24 hour services are expertly case managed by highly experienced High Care Case Managers who have decades of nursing experience to guide your care and our Live in Carers.
Diagnosis and treatment plans are still determined by your known and trusted doctors. You will be allocated with a dedicated High Care Case Manager who will primarily manage your care, however it’s good to know that our High Care Case Managers do work together as a team in order to successfully share on-call and back each other up when on leave.
Our High Care Case Managers are also supported by our private Registered Nurses which allows us to provide fast 24 hours of expert nursing support to clients.
