For health professionals
A direct conversation. A coordinated approach.
Referral enquiries for nursing and palliative care at home across Hervey Bay, Fraser Coast and Wide Bay.
Discuss a referral with Stephanie.
For referral enquiries, please contact Stephanie directly. GPs, hospital discharge planners, aged care professionals and community referrers are welcome to discuss a person's care needs.
An initial conversation can cover current supports, discharge timing and family communication needs, and help establish whether The Extra Mile can offer suitable care.
