Senior nurse-led clinical care at home for complex patients, veterans, post-discharge patients and the families supporting them. CareLink bridges hospital, home and GP care across Cairns and Far North Queensland.
Care usually starts with a worried family message, a hospital discharge plan, or a GP referral. CareLink turns that messy moment into a clear clinical pathway at home.
Send a request online and a senior nurse takes it from there, not a call centre.
We review the discharge plan, the wounds, the medications and the home setting, then explain everything in plain language.
You know who is coming, what they are doing and why. Your GP stays in the loop the whole way.
Referrals by form, fax or phone, with discharge summaries handled confidentially.
Every referral is reviewed by a senior nurse and triaged on clinical need.
Progress notes, wound imaging and escalations flow back to you, not into a void.
A named senior nurse who knows the patient and stays across the case.
We work as an extension of the patient’s GP, never around them. Orders are followed, changes are reported, and nothing happens in the dark.
Discharge planners refer to CareLink when a plan needs clinical hands at home from the first morning, not a brochure.
DVA community nursing delivered with the respect veterans and their families expect, under the DVA pathway your GP already knows.
Far North Queensland is a small place. We work like everyone will hear about it, because they will.

IV antibiotics at homeIntravenous antibiotic administration at home under your doctor’s orders, with monitoring at every visit.
