Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a carer and a nurse?

A carer (or support worker) helps with everyday tasks like showering, dressing, meals, and companionship. A Registered Nurse provides clinical care — wound management, medication administration, catheter care, chronic disease monitoring, and post-surgical support. At Evia Health, all care is delivered or supervised by qualified nurses.

Do I need a doctor's referral?

No. You can contact us directly — no referral, no assessment, and no government paperwork needed. We can also coordinate with your GP or specialist once care begins.

Can you help after surgery?

Yes. Post-surgical recovery is one of our most common services. Our nurses provide wound care, dressing changes, medication management, and ongoing monitoring at home — working with your hospital discharge team to make sure the transition is smooth and safe.

Are your nurses qualified?

All our nurses hold current AHPRA registration and are qualified Registered or Enrolled Nurses. Every team member undergoes National Police Checks, Working with Children Checks, and reference verification before they enter your home.
