- advise on nutrition and feeding
- equipment such as wheelchairs, mattresses and walkers may be loaned by hospice patients at no charge.

Their trained careworkers provide assistance to family’s and patients in need of home care. They are a registered practice that was opened in 2000 to provide affordable home care nursing to the terminally ill and frail.
They also train strong people to care for the aged, frail, terminal and post hospital patients. Things like helping with bedbaths and bath chairs, and helping with wheelchairs, taking of vital signs, assessing a wound, how to work with physiotherapists, how to communicate and stimulate the patient are all important things they are taught.
Basic first aid is also taught to enable the caregiver to act calmly in an emergency, before calling in paramedics. They are members of the Society for Private Nurse Practioners and call on them to attend to nursing procedures that are not in the scope of practice for a care worker.
