After hours is where risk lives.

We provide experienced after-hours management so incidents are handled correctly, documented properly, and aligned with your governance.

Founded by Tamara and Justine, Knight on Call is backed by 28 years of real sector experience, delivering structured, compliant after-hours management that protects your people, your participants, and your organisation

About Us

Knight OnCall was created from real conversations, real pressure, and a clear gap that keeps showing up across the sector. Working closely with NDIS and aged care providers, we see firsthand the weight that after-hours responsibility places on leadership teams. The calls don’t stop at the end of the day, and neither does the decision-making, the risk, or the responsibility.

For many organisations, after-hours support simply evolves over time. It is often informal, reactive, and heavily reliant on a small number of people who are expected to always be available. And while this approach works, to a point, it isn’t sustainable.

We see leaders carrying the pressure of being “always on.” We see teams unsure of what to do in complex situations. And we see the impact this has not only on organisations, but on the people behind them. Knight OnCall was built to change that.

We create a structured, professional after-hours support model designed specifically for the realities of the sector, one that brings clarity, consistency, and calm to situations that often happen outside standard business hours.

Our focus is simple:
• to support providers, protect their teams, and ensure safe, consistent outcomes for the people they care for.

Because after-hours shouldn’t mean uncertainty,
• and supporting others shouldn’t come at the cost of your own sustainability.

Who This is For

  • NDIS, child safety, and aged care providers responsible for delivering safe, compliant care around the clock

  • Service managers overseeing after-hours incident escalation, compliance, and staff decision-making

  • Organisations where leadership is still carrying the after-hours phone or relying on inconsistent on-call coverage

  • Growing teams needing structured, reliable after-hours management to maintain standards

  • Providers who want to reduce risk, protect their people, and ensure consistent decision-making across every shift

Why You Need This

  • Being pulled back into work after hours to manage incidents, calls, and escalations

  • Inconsistent decisions being made overnight depending on who is on call

  • Staff unsure how to respond, escalating late, or making the wrong call under pressure

  • Gaps in documentation, reporting, and compliance across NDIS, child safety, and aged care requirements

  • Ongoing pressure and fatigue from carrying 24/7 responsibility without structured support

Can You Imagine

  • Waking up to clear, documented incident reports instead of missed calls and uncertainty

  • Knowing every after-hours decision aligns with your policies, compliance requirements, and duty of care

  • Your team feeling supported and confident in high-pressure situations

  • Stepping out of the on-call cycle without losing visibility or control

  • Running a safer, more consistent operation across NDIS, child safety, and aged care, even after hours

With a strong reputation across the sector, Tamara is widely recognised for her collaborative approach and her ability to connect people, services, and opportunities in meaningful ways.
