Nursing Services

“Our aim is to support you so that you can continue to live independently, remain in your own residence and continue to be an active member in your community”
How we support you
At Thorpful Touch, we provide nursing support for people with and without disability, delivered by an experienced nurse who is committed to providing safe, respectful, and individualised care. Support is tailored to each person’s unique needs, preferences, and goals. We work with individuals across all stages of life — from children to older adults — with a strong focus on dignity, inclusion, and choice. We take the time to build genuine, one-on-one connections with our clients and, where appropriate, their families and support networks. Our approach is collaborative and aims to support independence, participation, and quality of life, both at home and within the community. Care is provided with compassion and professionalism, recognising that everyone’s circumstances are different. At Thorpful Touch, nursing support is about meeting people where they are, listening carefully, and offering support that feels respectful, reliable, and empowering.

CAPACITY BUILDING
Assistance in Coordinating Life Stages
Thorpful Touch offers Support Connection (NDIS – Level 1) to assist participants in understanding and navigating their supports.

The aim is to support informed decision-making and connection to appropriate services.
Support Connection may assist participants with:
