Care options

Living better at home can be a reality whatever your age or ability.

Our support workers can provide regular assistance with:

• laundry and ironing
• changing bed linen
• cleaning bathroom, kitchen and appliances
• organising heavy-duty cleaning
• running errands
• supplying meals
• care of pot plants and pets
• vacuuming, dusting and polishing
• shopping.

Our staff are highly experienced in all aspects of personal care.

Services include personal hygiene activities such as showering, dressing and grooming (including shaving and hair care), supervising medications and continence support as well as assistance with food preparation, eating and drinking.

Our services also extend to assistance with mobility and transfers, associated therapy routines and support with aids and appliances.

If you require nursing, rehabilitation or specialist care, assembling multi-disciplinary teams to meet your needs is all part of the service.

Our extensive health services mean you don’t have to go anywhere else for your specialist care needs.  We deliver the full range of nursing, allied health, multi-disciplinary expertise and information services.

Examples include:

• specialist case management and information services
• nursing services (such as wound and continence management)
• occupational and physiotherapist services (for example, specialising in rehabilitation, neurology, home assessments and modifications)
• leisure and vocational specialists (supporting people in their return to work, study and leisure activities)
• neuropsychology and behaviour support teams
• speech pathology (specialising in communication and swallowing disorders)
• dieticians
• exercise physiologists
• psychology and counselling services.

Regular breaks are essential to maintaining the health and wellbeing of carers and those they support.

Our respite services provide carers with some ‘me’ time to attend personal appointments, enjoy leisure activities or undertake tasks independently.

We can provide carers with planned, regular respite during the week, on weekends, overnight or during holidays. We can even respond in an emergency or crisis situation.
