THE DAILY NURSING
A place of empowerment, learning, and knowledge sharing with all the fraternity of nursing beyond language, geography, race, culture,and ethnicity. Feeling safe in familiar surroundings with family and friends and the reassurance of 24-hour, one-to-one nursing. Round the clock care, seven days a week, is provided for clients or couples for short-term (minimum 4 days) or long-ter
m bookings. Live-in Nurses are assigned based on particular areas of expertise and carefully matched so that a good relationship is fostered from an early stage. Our Nurse Co-ordinators are office-based, all registered nurses and are always on hand day and night to provide expert help and advice. Together with our Live-in Nurses, they work closely with families and other healthcare professionals to provide a coordinated, holistic care package. A listening ear and invaluable company provides reassurance and guidance to individuals and as well as attending to medical needs. It all adds up to make day-to-day living far more enjoyable and far less stressful for clients and their families, which means life can go on as normally as possible. Short-term bookings typically include:
respite care,
when a regular nurse or family member needs a break
rehabilitation
for people who need nursing care following surgery, a period of illness, or hospitalisation
end-of-life/palliative nursing care
for clients who want to stay in the comfort of their own home
clients who want to avoid a hospital admission or seek earlier discharge from hospital. Long-term bookings - typically on a two-week rotation – are suited to:
chronic medical illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, strokes or Parkinson’s disease
dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
frail clients who do not want to move into a residential nursing home. How we fit into your daily routine
Nurses work a minimum 12-hour day, usually between 8am and 8pm, with a 2-hour break, but Consultus offers a bespoke nursing service, giving you the reassurance that someone is always on hand beyond these hours and throughout the night.
