Who it's for
Who this
NDIS participants of any age living with a long-term urinary catheter — including people with spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, neurogenic bladder, or other conditions that make self-care difficult. We support participants in private homes, SIL/SDA settings, and regional and remote communities via outreach where possible.
How it works
Simple, clear, and
Schedule your change
Tell us your catheter type, size, and the date your next change is due. We confirm a suitable nurse and time, and order any consumables needed.
In-home or community visit
A registered nurse comes to you, performs the change using sterile technique, and checks the site for any signs of irritation or infection.
Plan the next visit
We document the change, share notes with your team if needed, and book your next change so nothing gets missed.
NDIS funding
