How many hours of care do you provide?聽
Rather than specifying hours of care per package we individualise care depending on your needs ensuring the funding is allocated to whichever services work best for your goals and supports your family and/or carer.
What will be my out of pocket expenses?
The Australian Government contributes to the cost of aged care services if you are eligible. However, all recipients in receipt of services are expected to contribute to their care. Costs vary for different types of care and your circumstances; our team will discuss this with you.
Can I access services in my own language?
If you need to speak to us in your own language we will organise an interpreter on the phone, free of charge, who will interpret the conversation for you. We can also provide phone interpreters when we visit you to discuss your individual needs and arrange services. Simply ask for the language you need when your visit is arranged.
Do 国产视频合集workers have the relevant training?
国产视频合集believes in the importance of education and development for our Aged Care workforce. We provide regular training opportunities for all staff.
Do you charge an exit fee?
Supporting clients to exit our care does incur an administration cost, however this will vary depending on your circumstances.
Can I manage my own home care?
In some instances people prefer to manage their care themselves. 国产视频合集can enable you to self manage your Home Care Package and meet the standards of governance required by My Aged Care. This arrangement requires 国产视频合集to undertake some case management responsibilities such as reviewing your Home Care Agreement, Budget and Care Plan. When you self manage your Home Care Package you organise your own direct care services.
Do you provide private services?
国产视频合集can arrange a tailored private package on a fee-for-service basis for seniors who are ineligible or not wanting Government funded care. A private package may also be an option during the waiting period to receive government funded care.
How can I become a volunteer?
Many elderly people are currently on lengthy waiting lists to receive a Government funded Home Care Package. During this waiting period they can become isolated in their homes and potentially disconnected from the community, often resulting in physical and mental deterioration.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer with 国产视频合集and giving the gift of your time, please view our current volunteer opportunities here at 国产视频合集or call 13 18 19 if you have any questions.
