Your care your way

We can tailor a care plan for you, which includes matching you with a suitable support worker to meet your individual needs.

MND Care in your home to keep you comfortable

 

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive neurological condition that impacts the nerve cells responsible for controlling voluntary muscles. As the disease advances, it can make everyday activities—such as speaking, breathing, and eating—challenging or even impossible. MND is life-limiting and, unfortunately, worsens over time. For individuals living with MND, the need for compassionate, expert care is essential to maintain quality of life and dignity during this difficult journey.

At Help at Hand Support, we specialize in providing in-home MND care that allows your loved one to stay in the comfort of their own home, surrounded by familiar faces and environments. Our dedicated team of experienced carers and nurses are well-versed in the unique challenges that come with caring for someone with MND. We offer a compassionate, skilled, and tailored approach to support both the patient and their family.

In-home palliative care for MND ensures that those living with the condition receive the appropriate level of care needed to manage symptoms effectively. Our team works closely with you, your loved one, and the healthcare professionals involved in their treatment, including GPs, specialists, and community-based care teams. This collaborative approach helps to create a comprehensive, individualized care plan that prioritizes comfort, symptom management, and emotional well-being.

Our palliative care team is highly skilled in managing the complex and evolving needs of MND patients. This includes assistance with daily activities like eating, drinking, and mobility, as well as managing respiratory support and maintaining a safe environment. Whether it’s providing personal care, administering medications, or simply offering emotional support, Help at Hand Support ensures that your loved one can live with dignity and independence for as long as possible.

We understand that the emotional, physical, and logistical challenges of MND care can feel overwhelming, which is why we’re here to provide consistent, reliable support every step of the way. Our goal is to make sure you and your family can focus on what truly matters—spending precious time together—while we take care of the rest.

With Help at Hand Support, you’re not just getting a caregiver—you’re gaining a trusted partner in care. We offer tailored, compassionate MND care services across Melbourne, Geelong, Sydney, and the Sunshine Coast. Our team is here to help manage symptoms, improve quality of life, and provide the expert care that you and your loved ones deserve.

If you’re looking for high-quality, in-home MND care, contact us today. Our experienced team is ready to support you and your family with the knowledge, skills, and compassion needed during this challenging time. Let us help you provide your loved one with the care they need, where they feel most comfortable—at home.

OUR CLIENTS SAY

Speaking from a place of Care and Empathy towards my client

Hi,

I wanted to reach out and say a thank you to the team for reaching out to tell me about your company's services, coincidentally I became a support coordinator for a mutual client the day before.

The message was passed on your care team, who I had the pleasure of chatting with earlier today. I also wanted to say a big thank you to her for sharing care, paying attention to detail and speaking to me from a place of care and empathy towards my client.

It's important to have coordinators who put client's needs front and centre. She was very responsive and wanting to reach out to me, which is something I don't see much of from other providers.

Mark (Support Coordinator)

Huge difference to Her life!

Hi HAHS Team,

You really made a huge difference to her life; she was so appreciative of your support as am I.
It is so sad about her passing; she was a beautiful lady and I wish she could have had the birthday she wanted and her holiday.

Please take comfort knowing that you made Her life better, and you are a fantastic support team. I wish you all the best.

Kind regards,

Jade SC

Never experienced this level of support before

Good Afternoon Help At Hand Support Team,

I have been given really positive feedback from our participant. She stated that she is just so happy with the cleaning and the standard of cleaning is really high. She stated that she is really happy with her support worker and she has never experienced this level of support with any other company she has been with.

She thanked me over and over again, and kept saying how happy she was.

I thought I would pass this on as it was such positive feedback.
