In-Home Care
Care at Home - Private or Funded
We understand how hard it is to know where to start when you need help to stay at home and you’re looking for the best care options. Increasing care needs no longer mean a move away from your home and into a residential aged care facility.
We strongly believe that staying amongst familiar people and surroundings can help you live a more active and enjoyable life as you age, even as your care needs increase. It's easier to keep your mind and body strong in your own environment where you can continue to be stimulated by the things you've always loved.
If you or your loved one needs high level care, Angels in Aprons can provide 24-hour support with round the clock one-on-one attention unlike any available in residential aged care.
Depending on your circumstances, you might choose privately funded care at home or apply for government-funded support. Many clients use a combination of private and government-funded support services.
We know the importance of maintaining choice and control over the decisions you make every day that make you who you are.
The advantages of staying at home include:
Privately Funded Home Care
Angels in Aprons specialises in designing tailored care to meet your individual needs. We can support you from when you need just a little help occasionally, or when recovering from a hospital stay, to providing 24-hour around the clock care at home, including care from our team of Registered Nurses.
We’ll work with you and your family to provide responsive and flexible care and give you peace of mind with a familiar team of dedicated carers providing services you can trust.
The advantage of our privately-funded services is that there’s no wait – we can start immediately , when you need us. For many families this has been a great comfort during times of crisis, for short-term emergencies through to long-term support and rehabilitation.
