What is Complex Nursing Care?

Complex nursing care is designed for individuals with serious or multiple health conditions that require constant monitoring, clinical expertise and medical input. This may include advanced neurological conditions, tracheostomy care, PEG feeding, long-term catheter care, wound management, palliative care, or complications from stroke, diabetes or other chronic illnesses.

This level of care is typically provided by qualified nurses, supported by a wider multidisciplinary team. It involves not only managing symptoms and medication but also monitoring changes in health, preventing complications, and supporting emotional and psychological wellbeing through holistic, person-centred care.
