Healthy@Home: Chronic Disease Service  

Program

How the Healthy@Home Chronic Disease Service program works:

After receiving your referral to the service, one of our registered nurses will contact you to arrange an appointment for you to discuss your health issues. At this appointment you will work together to prepare a plan of care to address your health issues.

The plan of care may involve education about your condition, different treatment options, lifestyle education and group exercise classes.

The chronic disease management teams helping you comprise of nurses, social workers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, podiatrists and dieticians, who work together with GPs, non-government agencies and private health care providers.

You will be provided with these services and support for a period of three to six months in partnership with your GP.

After this time you will be provided with an ongoing plan of care and links to your local community services and appropriate programs.
