What is complex care?
Complex care is an invaluable form of healthcare and support designed for individuals experiencing chronic or long-term health conditions. These individuals require additional assistance to effectively manage their symptoms and navigate their daily routines. Conditions that often necessitate complex care include neurological disorders, disabilities, injuries, and, at times, the use of feeding tubes. This specialised form of care acknowledges the unique needs of these individuals and provides them with the necessary resources and attention to enhance their quality of life.
Our complex care

We understand the unique challenges presented by living with long-term complex conditions, and we are here to offer support to help you maintain independence and dignity in the comfort of your own home.
Living with a complex medical condition can be overwhelming, but with the right support, you can thrive. Our team is experienced in addressing a wide range of complex care needs, including stoma care, bowel management, ventilation and respiratory support, oxygen therapy, peg feeding, tracheostomy care, palliative care, brain injury care, spinal injury care, and renal care.
At Maplewood Independent Living, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live life to the fullest, regardless of their medical condition. With our compassionate support, you can focus on what matters most – living your best life.
We create individualised care plans based on the specific needs and preferences of each client. These plans often involve input from healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers, to ensure that all aspects of the individual’s health and well-being are addressed.
Many complex care providers offer around-the-clock support, including overnight care, to ensure that individuals with complex needs receive continuous assistance and supervision as required. We recognise the importance of addressing the emotional and social needs of their clients and may offer companionship, emotional support, and opportunities for social engagement to enhance overall well-being.
At Maplewood Independent Living, our staff members in complex care settings undergo rigorous training to ensure they have the knowledge, skills, and competencies required to deliver high-quality care to individuals with complex needs.
