By using this website, you acknowledge that the information provided does not replace medical advice, clinical assessment, emergency care, hospital discharge planning, GP advice or personalised nursing care planning.


2. General Information Only

Apex Nursing Services publishes information about nursing-led home care, veteran-focused support, private care, aged care support, community nursing, personal care, respite care, post-hospital care and related services.

This information is intended to help clients, families, carers and referrers better understand available care options.

It is not intended to diagnose, treat, prevent, manage or cure any medical condition.

It should not be relied on as a substitute for advice from a general practitioner, nurse practitioner, specialist, hospital discharge team, allied health professional, pharmacist, emergency service or other qualified healthcare provider.


3. No Personal Medical Advice

Information on this website is general and may not apply to your individual circumstances.

Every person’s care needs, health condition, medication routine, mobility, home environment, risks and support requirements are different.

You should seek professional advice from an appropriate healthcare provider before making decisions about medical treatment, nursing care, medications, wound care, mobility, recovery, discharge planning, chronic condition management or any health-related matter.


4. No Emergency Service

Apex Nursing Services is not an emergency medical service.

Do not use this website, website forms, email, social media messages or online enquiries for urgent medical emergencies.

If you or another person has a medical emergency, serious injury, chest pain, difficulty breathing, sudden deterioration, loss of consciousness, severe pain, signs of stroke, major bleeding, immediate safety risk or any urgent clinical concern, call emergency services immediately.


5. Care Enquiries Do Not Replace Clinical Assessment

Submitting an enquiry to Apex Nursing Services does not create a clinical relationship, confirm a care plan, or guarantee that a service is suitable.

Before any care arrangement begins, Apex Nursing Services may need to discuss the situation, review relevant information, consider safety factors, confirm service suitability, confirm staff availability and complete any required documentation.

In some cases, further advice, referral, assessment or direction from a GP, hospital, specialist, allied health professional or other healthcare provider may be required.


6. Post-Hospital and Recovery Information

Information about post-hospital care, recovery support, wound care, medication routines, mobility assistance or care after surgery is provided for general guidance only.

Clients and families should always follow hospital discharge instructions, GP advice, specialist instructions, medication directions and any care plan provided by relevant healthcare professionals.

If symptoms worsen, new symptoms appear, pain increases, wounds change, medication concerns arise, or the person’s condition deteriorates, contact an appropriate healthcare provider or emergency services.


7. Medication Information

Apex Nursing Services may discuss medication support as part of general service information.

Website content does not provide medication advice.

You should not start, stop, change, increase, reduce or skip medication based on information from this website.

Medication questions should be directed to a GP, pharmacist, specialist or other qualified healthcare provider.

Medication-related support by Apex Nursing Services will only be provided where appropriate, authorised, safe and within the agreed scope of care.


8. Wound Care and Clinical Support

Any website information about wound care, dressing support, observation, monitoring or clinical-style care is general only.

Wound care needs can vary significantly between individuals.

Apex Nursing Services may require relevant clinical information, instructions, referral details or care documentation before providing wound-related support.

If there are signs of infection, bleeding, severe pain, swelling, fever, wound breakdown or sudden deterioration, seek medical advice promptly.


9. DVA-Related Care Information

Apex Nursing Services welcomes members of the veteran community.

Apex Nursing Services uses the following wording in relation to DVA clients:

“We welcome DVA clients, DVA Health Cards (Gold and White) are accepted as payment upon a GP referral”

Information about DVA-related care pathways is general only and does not guarantee eligibility, referral approval, payment approval, service access or clinical suitability.

Service access, referrals, payment arrangements and care pathways may depend on individual circumstances, clinical need, GP referral requirements and relevant DVA guidelines.


10. No Guarantee of Health Outcomes

Apex Nursing Services aims to provide safe, respectful and reliable care.

However, no website content, care enquiry, service description or care arrangement guarantees a specific health outcome, recovery outcome, improvement, prevention of deterioration, funding outcome, eligibility result or service result.

Care outcomes may depend on many factors, including the person’s health condition, care needs, home environment, treatment plan, support network, clinical instructions and changes over time.


11. Accuracy of Information

Apex Nursing Services aims to keep website information accurate and up to date.

However, health, aged care, home care, nursing, DVA-related and service information may change over time.

We do not guarantee that all website information will always be complete, current, suitable for every situation or free from error.

Apex Nursing Services may update, change or remove website content at any time.
