Just Better Care: Life Gets Better When You Have the Right Support

on Friday, January 22, 2016

More than one million people in Australia receive some type of aged care service, with over half receiving that support and care at home.

Older Australians want to remain living in their own homes for as long as possible and not move into a residential aged care home. Not long ago, this was not possible for many people but thankfully home care has become much more accessible over the last few years.

So, what exactly is home care?

Just Better Care offers a complete range of home care support services to their clients throughout Australia. 

These services can assist elderly people with basic help around the house, running errands and meal preparation, with assistance with personal needs such as showering and dressing also offered.

Employing the assistance of home care support services doesn’t mean losing your independence – often it can be empowering to have some extra help if it means you can remain living in the comfort of your own home.

Just Better Care’s team of dedicated and professional care staff almost become like a second family for clients which is ideal for family members who can’t be there all the time or provide all the care themselves.

A whole range of businesses are involved in home care in order to provide the best care possible. Just Better Care’s staff manage a whole range of services including physios, local stores for meal and grocery deliveries and GP’s. All these services come together to create great home care packages.

Just Better Care’s Trish Noakes said, “When my Mum fell and fractured her hip and subsequently had a stroke, her life changed overnight.”

“With the help of great care staff and regular physio, Mum stayed living at home. The support staff were like angels and gave Mum wonderful care. I had peace of mind knowing she was happy and well supported,” she said.

“Mum discovered new things to do and she embraced and accepted this chapter in her life. I learnt so much from my Mum as she adjusted to her new life.”

Home care is now easily accessible and more affordable than ever before and a great alternative for those not wanting to make the move into residential aged care.

Home care is now offered under the Consumer Directed Care (CDC) model which means you have even greater control over the care services you receive and who provides them.

Just Better Care provides great support to elderly Australians at home, empowering them to maintain their independence and remain engaged and involved with their friends, families and communities.

We all face challenges as we age, but home care services provided by Just Better Care ensure that Australians can keep enjoying life – independently.
