What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care is a specialised form of residential care that focuses on the medical and clinical needs of residents who require ongoing health management. This level of care is provided by qualified nurses who are trained to monitor and treat medical conditions, administer medications, and support rehabilitation following illness or surgery.

Unlike typical residential care, nursing care homes have the facilities and staff necessary to deliver complex care in a safe and controlled environment. This includes wound care, pain management, continence support, and other nursing interventions that require professional expertise around the clock.
