About me

I am Simone Melis, an independent registered nurse. I work alongside people and families who need a healthcare professional who is present, competent and easy to reach.
I have developed experience in community, residential and semi-residential services, working with vulnerable people, caregivers and multidisciplinary teams. Good care is not only a set of procedures: it requires listening, clear explanations and continuity.
After my Bachelor’s degree in Nursing, I completed a first-level Master’s degree in Management and Coordination for Healthcare Professions. I also undertook specific training in hard-to-heal wound management with IAWC and work as a wound-care specialist.
When I enter someone’s home, my first priority is to make the person feel heard and the family less alone: explaining what is happening, what to observe and how to build a care plan that is sustainable in everyday life.

Nursing services

Preparation and administration of medication, injection and infusion therapy, urinary catheter care and prescribed nursing procedures.
Home checks and procedures to follow health over time, reduce travel and support patients and families.
Home blood tests
The sample is collected at home, avoiding travel and waiting. The service includes checking the request, identifying samples and delivery to the agreed laboratory.
Request assistance →Date, time, prescription and any fasting requirements are agreed.

View all areas →Peace of Mind from Afar
Ongoing support for older or vulnerable people and for family members who live far away, work or cannot be present as often as they would like.
Request an introductory call →A weekly visit to follow general health, medication and signs requiring attention.
One scheduled visit with two separate assessments, ideal when both parents need supervision.
People living alone or with early frailty, after discharge, or when the family wants reliable, regular healthcare support.
The service is defined after an initial assessment. Health information is shared with family only with the person’s permission.
This is scheduled care, not an emergency service. Advanced dressings, tests, ECG, Holter and other services can be arranged separately.
Every situation is different: the content and organisation of care are agreed after an introductory conversation and initial assessment, without imposing a standard package.

Why I do this
I believe in care that combines clinical precision, listening and respect for the person’s pace.
Care in familiar surroundings reduces travel, supports continuity and actively involves family members and caregivers. My aim is to be a reliable point of reference, explain each step clearly and tailor care to the situation.
