Who Can Refer?

We regularly receive referrals from:

  • Support at Home & Home Care Package Providers
  • NDIS Support Coordinators and Providers
  • Hospital Discharge Planners and Health Professionals
  • Residential Aged Care & Community Services
  • Families and Self-Managing Clients

However, you don't need to be a healthcare professional to refer someone to us. If you know someone who could benefit from extra help at home — we're here to make the process simple and stress-free.

If you are a self-managing participant, you can nominate Medicana as your preferred provider of your Support at Home, NDIS, Restorative or Palliative Care services.
