Frequently asked questions

Common questions about home care overview

Do all services have to be delivered in clinic first?

No. Some pathways start at home immediately when travel, safety, or recovery status makes that the better option.

Can more than one service be involved in home-based care?

Yes. Home-based care can involve physiotherapy, remedial massage, rehabilitation, nursing, and related pathways depending on need.

How do you decide whether someone is suitable for a home visit?

Suitability depends on clinical need, location, travel efficiency, safety, and the kind of support required.
