What is Surgical and Chronic Wound Care Support Under the NDIS?
Participants suffering from surgical wounds or other chronic wounds and needing occasional or regular nursing assistance with the management and care of such wounds may be eligible for funding under the NDIS. The scheme provides funding to eligible participants to get support from a trained healthcare provider or registered nurse for their wound care needs.
The NDIS offers wound care support funding to participants after determining their eligibility for the same. The condition must be directly related to your disability. A certified medical practitioner must approve the support requirement.
The NDIS support covers funding to hire full-time or part-time nurses to help patients with the day-to-day care of wounds, including dressing and administering medication. Nurses can also help use disability equipment like lymphoedema machines provided under the NDIS to help manage participants’ wounds.
As an NDIS-registered provider, NHCH offers registered and trained nurses to help NDIS participants. Contact us for details.

With a strong reputation for care-driven services, we are one of the top providers of high-intensity personal assist services.
The Regional Assessment Service will work with you to develop a personalised home support plan tailored directly to your needs. Assessors send a ‘referral for service’ to appropriate providers, such as Newcastle and Hunter Community Health, to let them know you are a new client and would like to engage their services. The provider will contact you to make further arrangements.
Alternatively, if you would like to visit or speak to a service provide to decide if they are the right fit for you, a ‘referral code’ can be sent which allows them to view your client record. The provider will review your identified needs and determine how they can assist. You then make the final decision on whether or not to engage their services.
