Our Virtual Nursing service allows you to contact qualified registered nurses without leaving your home, making health and wellbeing management easier and more convenient than ever.

By simply picking up the phone, experienced and compassionate Feros Care registered nurses can provide you with an individual telehealth nursing program. This can guide and educate you about any health conditions or concerns, help you manage your health monitoring, and empower you to take control of your wellbeing.

Offering expert support whenever and wherever you need it, our registered nurses are available Monday to Friday to provide expert advice, peace of mind, and a warm, friendly ear.

 The benefits of Virtual Nursing:

  • Allows you to seek medical advice from registered nurses who work in aged care and are familiar with the conditions commonly affecting your age group.
  • Gives you a better understanding of your health, and how you can best look after yourself.
  • Can reduce the frequency of GP visits, saving you time, money, and hassle.
  • Provides you – and your loved ones – with peace of mind knowing that medical advice is just a phone call away.
  • Offers support with your own health measuring and monitoring devices.
  • If you use an app to keep track of your health data, this can be shared with our registered nurses, your GP, and any relevant specialists.

My Feros Care Telehealth Nurse was empowering me. She gave me goals and believed in me. We were able to build a special relationship with each other – it was something I was looking forward to.
