  • I am a disability support worker, and would like to add a little context that may affect how this expense is perceived. One of the types of in home support for the very disabled, injured or the very old, is nursing.

    Some types of in home care require a nurse - administering certain medication, handling a ventilator, wound care, etc.

    If there are not nurses in the community offering these services the alternative is that these people go to the hospital for the round the clock care they need - a much more expensive proposition.
