Home Care Levels

What is home care?

Home care is help and support in your home by qualified and professional carers. A home care plan is developed together with you, to meet your needs and to help you achieve your goals at home. Home care can be government funded through My Aged Care or privately funded. Home care helps you live comfortably and safely at home as you grow older, knowing that help is only a phone call away.

Services that support you at home

Home care provides support tailored to what you want. Do you need some help to get out and about in your community and more socially active? Do you need help with the grocery shopping? Or medical support following a hospital stay?

We are here to help make your lifestyle at home as comfortable as it can be, with care directed by you, with as little or as much support as you want.

Live independently in your own home

Getting home care support sooner than later will reduce the risk of having to enter a residential home care facility. The sooner you start, the better off you will be because as you grow older, we have a relationship and history with you, we understand your lifestyle needs, and our home care services will adapt with your changing needs.
