What's included in our Home Care Packages

 

In order that we may personalise and assist in your particular needs, initially we can establish your Home Care Package, and in turn take the time to Develop a Care Plan to your particular requirements and care package level.

​

Our service also includes a regular In home assessments and review allowing for Care Plan updates as required.  Our ongoing Budget Monitoring, will ensure you are constantly informed and aware how your funds are distributed. 

​

Through Regular Communication we can further ensure integrated care by liaising with your GP, hospital and allied health professionals and referrals, along with ordering of equipment, goods and services as required, to ensure the support giving you the peace of mind you deserve.
