In-home services

At Caring Choice we offer a wide range of services that can help you with in-home aged care for a loved one. Our dedicated team of experienced care workers is like an extended family that can provide you with an extra set of hands. The range of services we provide is a genuine alternative to moving a loved one into a nursing home.

 

We are flexible!

 

Caring Choice is a private agency. We are therefore able to provide care that is extremely flexible, and is not subject to some of the restrictions often imposed on services that are government funded. Many of our clients use our services to augment the services they receive as part of a government funded package.

That's why we can offer:

  • Care from just one hour
  • A tailored plan involving regular visits
  • Overnight care
  • 24 Hour Live-In Care
  • Respite visits to give family carers regular breaks

Respite Care
Taking a break is essential for the physical and mental well-being of a family carer. It's important for you to enjoy some time out knowing that your loved one will be cared for by someone with the right experience. Respite can be arranged whenever it is required, or on a regular basis.

Check Visits
Sometime a quick visit to a frail, aged client or client with dementia from a friendly face may be all that they need to live at home independently. Such visits may include prompting for meals, showering and/or medication.

Social Outings and Companionship

Alternatively, we can include a visit to the local coffee shop, hotel, art gallery or sporting event. Read more about the Caring Choice Lifestyle Program.
