About Coral Care Services
At Coral Care Services, we believe that exceptional healthcare goes beyond treating symptoms—it’s about caring for the whole person. Founded by Mark Ward and Steffen Jorgensen, our agency brings together qualified medical professionals with extensive experience in both general nursing and complementary healthcare.
Person-centred and holistic care
We recognised a gap in the nursing sector—a need for person-centred and holistic care that integrates traditional medical practices with compassionate, human-centred support. That’s why we created Coral Care Services—to provide nursing and community care that blends clinical expertise with a deep understanding of each individual's unique needs.
Our approach ensures that every client receives high-quality, regulated healthcare while also benefiting from complementary and holistic services that enhance well-being. We are dedicated to delivering care that is respectful, empowering, and tailored to each individual.
