Care, Compassion, Competence: NDIS Community Nursing CareNursing care is an essential disability-related health support that can significantly improve the quality of life for many differently-abled individuals. The Australian health system is the primary source of access with regards to health care services for all citizens irrespective of the fact that they have a disability or not. But if a person needs to manage a health condition that arises because of their disability, NDIS may fund disability-related health supports to help them manage that condition. NDIS Community Nursing Care is one such disability support that provides nursing services to NDIS participants according to their individual needs and the complexity of the tasks at hand.
People with disabilities often require intricate and specialised services when it comes to their health care needs. It includes help with the daily management of their medication, administration of subcutaneous injections, assistance with their feeding tube, catheter care, wound management and complex bowel care. These are tasks that demand certain expertise and competencies from the care provider.
Only a suitably qualified and trained practitioner like a Registered Nurse can provide these supports. Registered Nurses hired under your NDIS plan can help you carry out a health assessment and conduct supervision. They can help you create a nursing care plan and even delegate tasks to your carers and other support workers if your health needs are consistent. Nursing services should be provided in consultation with your medical practitioner/s to achieve the best results.

Right Way to Manage Your MedicationLiving with disabilities can be associated with various health issues. Usually, people with disabilities requires continuous medication management support. This support is crucial as it requires appropriately trained support staff who understands the risks involved. Community Nursing Care is the NDIS support under which participants can access medication management.
Medication management is an important support that is high risk and demands a lot of responsibility from the service provider. To understand its complexity, it is important to distinguish between support and administration of medication. Support is when the NDIS participant directly asks the service provider worker or the care staff for a specific medicine in a specific amount to be handed over to them. There the staff is not making any decisions; they are simply providing physical support. But medication administration is when the staff is making decisions regarding the medicine to be given. For example, if the NDIS participant asks the care worker to give them their morning medication without specifying anything, then the care worker has to go over the participant’s medication information, find the right medicine from the pillbox and give it to them. There the care worker is making a lot of decisions that involve risk as well as responsibility. Hence, it is very important to ensure that the care workers and other staff are highly trained and competent. They must be familiar with all the NDIS guidelines and standards laid down by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.
