NURSE PractitionerS

In Australia, a Nurse Practitioner (NP) is an advanced practice registered nurse who has completed additional education and training beyond that required for a registered nurse (RN). NPs have a higher level of autonomy and responsibility in patient care compared to RNs. They are authorised to perform a range of tasks including assessing patients, diagnosing conditions, ordering tests, prescribing medications, and providing treatments.

Nurse Practitioners typically have master’s or doctoral degrees in nursing and are required to undergo specific certification processes to practise in their advanced role. They work in various healthcare settings including hospitals, clinics, community health centres, and private practices, often collaborating with other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care to patients. NPs play a crucial role in the healthcare system, particularly in areas where there may be shortages of physicians or where specialised care is needed

We have extensive experience across a broad range of health conditions. We can help you with the acute phases of an illness, or help you manage your long-term conditions. Whether you need a repeat prescription, a medical certificate or some bloods or an x-ray, we can help.

Opioid Substitution treatment (OST)

We are authorised to prescribed ODT under the QLD Opioid treatment program. Whether you are currently registered and looking for a new prescriber or would like to discuss and manage your opioid dependence (prescribed or illicit), we can help.

We can prescribe all forms of ODT/OST medications that are available in Australia. OST/OST medications are listed on the PBS and cost the price of a normal script. They are administered and dispensed in most pharmacies
