RDNS is at the forefront of developing innovative home healthcare programs to further enhance our existing high standards of client care.

General and specialised nursing and homecare is provided with the dual objective of improving a person's health status whilst enabling them to enjoy the benefits of remaining at home.

As an organisation seeking to deliver the highest standard of healthcare, RDNS recognises and embraces partnerships with both our clients and other healthcare providers.

Healthcare is also available through our Homeless Persons Program to clients experiencing homelessness (available in certain parts of Melbourne only).  In additional to these services RDNS provides a private healthcare service.

These services include domestic assistance, personal care, general services, monitoring, overnight services, respite care, transport and more.

Our clinical expertise is constantly evolving and is informed by evidence-based research from the respected RDNS Helen Macpherson Smith Institute of Community Health.
