High Intensity Daily Care

High Intensity Daily Care

Good Samaritan Care services provides high intensity daily care for people who require more intensive levels of support than what standard levels of care can offer – whether due to disability or a chronic health condition. This covers a wide range of supports but can include personal care such as having a shower, respiratory care, stoma care, home modifications to help you move freely in your space or behaviour management support.

Organising high level care for yourself or a dear one can feel stressful, but National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) assist with accessing these services. This can enable you to be safe, supported and cared for within your home or a supported living environment. NDIS High Intensity Support is available for people who have high care needs, so they can live their lives as independently as possible.

We deliver high quality care from qualified and experienced registered nurses or specialised support workers or clinicians with the advanced qualifications and experience. Highest standards in care delivery with attention to every detail is ensured. We value each of our client’s consent and choice, and treat everyone with respect.

We can also help you apply for NDIS High Intensity funding if you are just at the beginning of your care journey. For more information and free consultation, CONTACT US.
