Home Care is a service whereby you receive a variety of care services in your own home. You do not have to travel anywhere or get dressed up to leave the house! A carer will travel to you and provide you with care and support in your own home.
That support can be as simple or as involved as you need — a hand getting dressed, help with the cleaning and garden, meals, a lift to appointments, or nursing and physiotherapy at home. It can even cover equipment like a walking frame and simple changes such as handrails or a ramp.
Most people access home care through a government-subsidised program, and it starts with a free assessment through My Aged Care on 1800 200 422. From there we'll help you compare providers in your area and find one that fits — free, with no obligation.
