Customer story: Fran and Ken

Understanding your Home Care needs

With 6 children and many years of overseas travel, Ken and Fran fully embrace life. Ken’s diagnosis of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s and Fran’s MS has meant that they needed some extra support to live safely at home. Both Ken and Fran were confused by what they could get from the Home Care Package program and what provider might be the best fit for their needs.

CareAbout visited them in their home and helped explain Home Care Packages in a way that gave them the confidence to select the right provider for their needs.

Home modifications

CareAbout visited them in their home and helped explain Home Care Packages in a way that gave them the confidence to select the right provider for their needs. Ken’s Level 2 Package has meant that they are able to get some help with maintenance and cleaning for the chores that have increasingly become too difficult. Ken and Fran continue to live their lives at home and pursue their interests by going to see great films and shows in the city.
