Finding Peace of Mind in a Difficult Journey: How MediStays Supports Ellie, a Dedicated Cancer Nurse, and Her Patients

It extends to the lives of patients and their families, who often have to navigate a maze of logistical challenges. One of the most pressing issues for those travelling from rural areas is finding trusted accommodation for patients. Hotels and apartments providing reliable and comfortable accommodation near the hospital are hard to come by.
Ellie understands that for many of her patients, the stress of cancer and its treatments is compounded by this difficulty of securing a place to stay. That’s why she refers her country patients to MediStays. MediStays is an Australian service providing trusted accommodation for patients needing a stay close to hospitals medical facilities. Partnering directly with hotels and apartments, MediStays is an invaluable resource that alleviates a significant burden for her patients. It also gives Ellie the peace of mind she needs to focus on their medical and nursing care.

Streamlined Invoicing Support
One of the standout features of MediStays is its streamlined invoicing support. For many patients and their families, navigating the financial logistics of long-term stays and managing multiple bills and invoices can be overwhelming. MediStays simplifies this process by handling invoicing directly with patients on behalf of hotels and apartments. This relieves Ellie and her colleagues of time consuming administration, giving them time back in their day to ensure they can provide high-quality care. This service is particularly beneficial for families who are new to medical travel.
Accessibility for All Patients
Accessibility is another critical area where MediStays excels. We understand that patients undergoing treatment for cancer may have specific needs, whether it’s easy access to support a patient’s limited mobility or equipment. MediStays ensures that all accommodation partners are vetted for accessibility, providing peace of mind for patients and their families. This attention to detail means that Ellie can confidently refer her patients, knowing they will be staying in a safe environment.
Securing the Best Rates
Financial strain is a common concern for families dealing with a cancer diagnosis. MediStays works diligently to secure the best rates for our clients, ensuring that patients can afford to stay close to the hospital without compromising on comfort or convenience. This commitment to affordability is a significant relief for Ellie’s patients, many of whom travel from rural areas and may not have the financial means to cover expensive hotel stays. By negotiating the best possible rates, MediStays helps to alleviate some of the financial burdens that come with complex or lengthy medical treatments.
Links to Australian Government Financial Assistance
Navigating the complexities and eligibility of financial assistance can be daunting for patients and their families. MediStays provides valuable links to Australian government financial assistance programs, such as the Isolated Patients Travel and Accommodation Assistance Scheme (IPTAAS) and the Patient Travel Assistance Scheme (PTAS). These programs offer support for travel and accommodation costs, ensuring that rural and remote patients can access the care they need without financial hardship. By connecting patients with these resources, MediStays plays a crucial role in reducing the financial stress associated with long-term cancer treatment.
