Holistic Care Nursing Ministries (HCNM) is a program of Holy Covenant Anglican Church. We provide support to vulnerable members of the community across four fields:

Client Support - Home visits; assistance with shopping and errands; transport for appointments; connection to other activities, such as outings and community lunches; casseroles and soups, as needed; and assistance with end of life planning, when requested.

Household Support - Home help with sorting/downsizing, decluttering and removal of unwanted items.

Community Outings - Transport to and from planned group events throughout the year, such as Floriade, musical recitals, and the theatre.

Covenant Care Day Hospice - Covenant Care opened in 2012 and is a wonderful example of the gospel in action. Most terminally ill people want to remain in their own home to their last days. The support provided by Covenant Care Day Hospice helps make this possible.

Our day hospice offers “A Day with a Difference” for those in our community who are living with a life-limiting illness. It also allows carers to have a day off to catch up on outstanding matters or to take some time out to relax. Our experienced registered nurse and cheerful volunteers ensure that the clients and carers know they are in good hands and will be well entertained and cared for while attending our program.

How your donation will help

We are raising funds to better support our clients. Some examples of the types of support required include providing free or subsidised mental health/counselling support; paying for cleaning or gardening services; buying tickets to concerts for the outings program, or purchasing support equipment for Covenant Care Day Hospice. More funds would also allow us to engage more professional entertainers to attend the Day Hospice
