Getting to know you helps us find the right
aged care solution for you
Moving a loved one into residential care
Aged care is no longer just about receiving clinical care in a nursing home. Aged care offers a range of care, support and wellbeing services for older Australians. These services may be to help you continue living in your own home, or to provide around-the-clock care and support in a care home. In Australia, the aged care system offers a wide range of options to meet the different needs and preferences of each person.
As a provider of aged care services, we’ve been supporting older Australians for over 70 years. That’s how we know that finding the right aged care solution for yourself or for a family member can be a confusing experience. Getting to know you helps us find the right aged care solution for you. By understanding your current situation, care needs and goals, our experienced and supportive team will be able to guide you through the process of understanding the types of care available and what they involve.
Some of the ways that we can help with getting started and understanding what the journey looks like include:
Discovering the range of aged care services available
Finding the right care solution for you or your family
Understanding the cost of different aged care options
Accessing and talking with MyAgedCare
Helping you organise an Aged Care Assessment
Finding and accessing the right information to ensure you’re informed and able to make the right decisions
