About INTENSIVE CARE AT HOME:

INTENSIVE CARE AT HOME is proud to be the first nurse-led accredited intensive care at home nursing service in Australia.

Having a proven, innovative, safe and robust 3rd party accredited framework to deliver intensive care at home nursing care enables us to look after the highest acuity and sickest patients in the community in Australia.

This proven model of care is revolutionising health care and intensive care at a rapid speed, creating value for patients, families, ICU’s/PICU’s, Hospitals and funding bodies alike.

The intellectual property we have built for intensive care at home nursing services enables us to attract the best, most motivated, enthusiastic and most amazing CRITICAL CARE nurses.

INTENSIVE CARE AT HOME is therefore in a position to employ a team with hundreds of years CRITICAL CARE nursing experience, giving us the ability to look after more and more long-term ICU/PICU and complex care Patients at home, which has been formerly unheard of until 2014 in Australia.

Here is what we do

Having a loved one in ICU/PICU long term on life support with medical complexities is a traumatic event.

Helping families to take their loved one home from an Intensive Care environment is a unique and powerful event that requires specialist skills that only few people and organisations have.

We empower and equip our clients with new awareness, opportunities, love and joy in the midst of massive challenges and we give them the precious gift of a peaceful and gentle transition to a holistic Client and family friendly home care environment, far away from the craziness of a hospital ICU/PICU environment.
