About Us
About Us
Veteran Nursing Pty Ltd is a DVA registered community nursing provider. We provide clinical nursing care in the patient’s own home, helping veterans and war widows stay safe, well and independent. We know the DVA system can be hard to navigate. Many veterans miss out on care they are entitled to simply because nobody has explained it to them. That’s why health literacy is at the heart of everything we do. We take the time to explain each patient’s situation in plain language and connect them with the right services.
