What is complex care?<\/h2>\n \n

Complex care is person-centred support for someone living with a chronic condition.<\/p>\n \n \n

Complex care is a type of healthcare and support given to people who have chronic or long-term health conditions who need extra help to manage their symptoms and daily tasks. Examples of such conditions include neurological disorders, disabilities, injuries, and sometimes the use of feeding tubes. Complex care differs from general\u00a0domiciliary care<\/a>\u00a0because it usually involves medical intervention of some sort, and can also be provided if someone requires\u00a0nursing care<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Complex needs refers to the variety of challenges that people in care may encounter, whether they are mental, physical or emotional.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
