Common questions about Ayah / Patient Attendant
What does an Ayah / Patient Attendant generally support?
The agreed scope may include personal hygiene, feeding support, repositioning or mobility assistance, companionship and other routine daily-care activities.
Is an Ayah the same as a nurse?
No. An Ayah or patient attendant is a non-nursing support role unless that individual is specifically presented with relevant nursing qualification documents.
Can medication assistance be included?
Only within the agreed role and instructions of the client or treating medical professional. An unqualified attendant must not independently diagnose, prescribe or change dosage.
Can I request a nursing candidate instead?
Yes. If the required scope is clinical, choose the Nurse & GDA Placement service so that qualification-appropriate profiles can be considered.
