Home blood tests for elderly parents and people with limited mobility
Short answer: If an elderly parent or someone you care for finds it hard to get to a collection centre, you can book a registered nurse to collect their blood test at home. Upload their doctor's request form when you book, or order a private test, and our team will confirm a time that suits them.
Booking for someone else
You can book and pay on their behalf. Enter their name, date of birth and address as the patient, and your own phone number if you would like us to arrange the visit with you.
Making the visit easy
- The nurse comes to their home, so there is no travel and no waiting room.
- They can stay seated in a comfortable chair.
- Have their photo ID and request form ready for the nurse.
Aged care facilities
We also work with residential aged care and home care providers. Facilities can talk to us about regular collection for residents.
