Home Care West End

Home Care Services West End

As a registered Home Care agency operating from West End, we have the aspiration to offer a range of services specifically to assist individuals who wish to remain in their own homes but require some support. We deliver our services to enhance the quality of their lives, encourage independence, and offer each individual the level and type of care they require, based on their own needs. Whether it is with daily activities, medical needs, or simply having the comfort of knowing they are not alone, our skilled staff is available to assist.

Home Care enables people to stay at home, instead of having to enter a residential home. This is particularly appropriate for the elderly, people recovering from illness, or people with long-term needs, as it enables them to have continuity and be in their own environment. We offer one-to-one care due to our philosophy, which is respecting each person’s choice but providing them with safety, dignity, and wellbeing.

At the heart of our services is a dedication to learning about each of our clients’ individual needs. Skilled professionals work in close collaboration with the client and his or her family members to develop personalized plans of care that consider personal interests, goals, and medical requirements. We strive to deliver the best level of care possible from the initial assessment through to ongoing support.

We provide our services to our clients all over the West End area, and we are flexible in providing our services, either on a short-term or long-term basis. We understand that situations in one’s life may change unexpectedly, and we would like to respond to the change by providing timely, responsible, and dependable care when one needs it most. Our caregivers are professionals who aim to provide each client with the best care as he or she maintains independent living and a quality life in his or her own home.

Our home care services are:

Domestic workers

Our Domestic Care keeps the client’s home clean and tidy. Our carers will keep your home warm and spick and span, from doing the washing up and removing the rubbish to helping with meals and bathing. We understand that for some, a tidy and clean home can become increasingly hard to achieve as the years go by or illness sets in. So here we are, to provide another set of hands in the way of simple housekeeping, so that our customers have a tidy and warm house to come back to.

Our services for home support include:

• General housekeeping
• Laundry and ironing.

Transportation to Appointments

Transportation to doctors’ appointments, social events, and errands is occasionally a problem. Our transportation service ensures that the person in need of the trip will have a safe and prompt journey to their destination. Whether it’s a routine doctor’s visit or a special event, we will offer dependable transportation, giving people the capability and independence to travel to required appointments or activities outside the home.

Day Programs and Activities

Socialization is also the foundation of mental and emotional health. We also have social events and activities throughout the day that are tailored to our clients’ socialization needs, skill levels, and interests. Whether it’s going out on an outing, arts and crafts, or another activity, we want our clients to be active and involved in their community. Not only do activities socially engage our clients, but they also exercise the mind, which is particularly healthy for dementia patients and seniors.

Post Hospital Care

The post-hospital services usually require special care in their own homes, and our post-hospital services provide continuity between hospital and home seamlessly. The kind of care that we provide is a recovery-focused care with the client being assisted with exercise therapy, drug therapy, and personal care. The aim of the service is to reduce readmission risk and recover as well as possible.

Pet Care

Pets bring love, happiness, and emotional relief to different people. Our pet sitting services incorporate pet feeding aid, pet walking, and other pet care to make sure that pets are given the proper attention as required so that they get the attention they deserve while their clients concentrate on their health and wellness. We understand the connection between pets and their owners, and we are willing to give the attention required to enable the connection to be maintained.

Case Management

Case management is one of our service’s major activities, especially to those with long-term complex needs. Our case managers coordinate with the client and his or her relatives to implement needs assessment, coordinate care, and follow up on progress. They see to it that every facet of the client’s care is addressed, from the medical to the social to the emotional. Case management is a key component in ensuring that clients receive comprehensive care that is responsive to their aspirations and needs.

Finding the optimal Home Care Providers to meet your needs

Selecting the perfect caregiver to enter your home is daunting. You must select one that not only will be a good fit for you, but one who will also fit your own values and lifestyle. With homecare, first and foremost, the caregiver that you select will be one who will do more than simply carry out activities of daily living – they will need to give you quality of life, maintain your independence, and address your physical, emotional, and social well-being.

Your ideal home caregiver agency should provide you with personalized care plans, highly trained caregivers, and compassionate methods of dealing with people. They should be capable of responding to your needs and be capable of modifying their services when your condition changes. Furthermore, a good reputation for being reliable and of high quality is just as vital as selecting the most suitable caregiver to come into your home is.

Keep in mind experience, flexibility, and the range of services they can provide in selecting a provider. Select one that is familiar with the local community and attuned to the specific needs of individuals in your population.

Home Care Funding Sources

We understand it could be overwhelming to sift through all the numerous options for home care financing, so never fear, we will be with you every step of the way. Depending on your circumstances and eligibility, there are a number of funding options available to pay for home care.

Government Funded

Home Care Packages

The Australian Government’s Home Care Packages is designed to assist individuals who require assistance with daily activities and would prefer to reside in their own home. The packages are awarded to eligible aged Australians as assessed to be in a specific need of care. It provides four levels of Home Care Packages ranging from low care needs to high care needs, complex care needs. The funding is paid for by the government, and the level of funding is based on individual needs assessment by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT).

Home Care Packages can be utilized to cover a range of services such as nursing, personal, domestic, social support, and allied health. Through funding under Home Care Packages, our clients can have personalized plans developed to address their needs, whatever they are, be it daily living, mobility, or home modification. Being an accredited provider, we interact with people to guide them through the Home Care Packages system and provide them with appropriate services based on their requirements.

NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme):

NDIS is a scheme funded by the government with the mission of assisting people with disabilities by providing them with funds to support them in accessing services and assistance that will enable them to be independent and self-sufficient. The fund caters to the eligible person under 65 years and above so those persons with permanent disability.

The NDIS funds can be used to pay for a variety of home care services including daily living, personal care, community participation, therapy, and coordination of support. The NDIS is a flexible and personalized form of care, and the participants have complete control over how they are cared for. Since we are a NDIS registered provider, we are able to provide individuals with disabilities a variety of services based on their own needs and objectives.

Non-Government Fund

Private Home Care:

Private home care is an option for individuals who do not qualify under government standards. Private home care is funded out of one’s own pocket, and the individual and their family have control over what type and how much care is suitable for them. Private home care also differs in the type and number of hours.

This is a perfect choice for those who are not eligible to receive government funding or who prefer to have the more one-on-one, as-needed type of care. Private home care can be anything from bathing and medication administration to socialization and respite for the caregiver. Although paid for with private dollars, the service can offer quality, professional care as and when needed.

What’s My Next Step?

If you or your loved one are considering home care in the West End, the first thing to do is to identify which source of funding is best for you. Here’s how you can go about it:

• Determine Your Needs: Start by finding out what support and care are needed. This may be by consultations with healthcare workers, such as a doctor, to determine what your needs are. If you feel that you may be eligible to be assessed for entitlement to an approved government-subsidised program, such as Home Care Packages or the NDIS, then it is very important to have the relevant assessments done.
• Contact a Home Care Provider: Contact an established home care provider like ourselves to discuss your needs, available funding streams, and services. Our team will guide you through the process and get you to understand your entitlement and appropriate funding options.
• Fund it: If you are eligible to access government funding, you might be able to receive a Home Care Package to My Aged Care if you are an older Australian, or to the NDIS via the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) if you have a disability. Or, if you are not eligible to access government funding, you might like to look at privately funded home care.
• Develop a Care Plan: After the funding is established, a care plan tailored to you will be built so that your needs are being addressed. Your care plan is not set in stone and can be modified in case your health and/or situation change.
• Receive Care: With your care and finance in place, you can start to receive the care you need to be able to live as independent a life as possible and have an even better quality of life. Our carers are always available to guide you along the way to deliver to you the highest standard of care in the comfort and safety of your own home.
