Frequently Asked Questions

How can a home carer support someone with dementia?

Carers or health care workers can play a crucial role in providing support to a person with dementia by not only contributing to their overall wellbeing, but enabling them to live at home for longer, and improving their sense of self-worth and independence. Whether they provide support a few times a week or more regularly, a carer can:

  • Provide stability and predictability through a structured daily schedule with regular mealtimes, activities, and rest periods
  • Give loved ones a break from managing their loved one’s dementia symptoms
  • Help reduce confusion and anxiety often experienced by people with dementia
  • Help with the housework so the home stays safe and tidy
  • Help with communication and making interactions more meaningful for people with dementia and their families
  • Provide safe transport and support in regular activities and events
  • Enable people with vascular dementia engage in activities and a specialist dementia care program that brings them joy and stimulates cognitive activity
  • Providing comfort, reassurance and companionship – especially when people with dementia face challenges in expressing themselves and behavioural symptoms

Home Caring provides personalised in home dementia care for people living with the condition. We are available in a wide range of suburbs in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Victoria, Canberra, and Tasmania. For more information, please get in touch with our customer service team.

In Australia, dementia care at home is usually funded through the Home Care Packages program, a government scheme that helps people with dementia access quality support in their own homes. The program offers four levels of packages, ranging from basic to high care, with funding allocated based on each person’s assessed care needs. Packages can be used for a wide range of services, such as personal care, nursing support, assistance with daily tasks, transport, day programs, independent living aids, and respite care.

People who receive a Home Care Package can choose their own provider, and work with them to create a care plan that is based on their needs. This provides flexibility, as each person can access services that is the most helpful to them when it comes to ageing at home.

To apply for a Home Care Package, the first step is to contact My Aged Care, the central hub for aged care services in Australia. You can reach them by calling 1800 200 422 or by visiting the website. During the call, they will ask you some basic questions about your needs to determine your eligibility for a Home Care Package.

If you are eligible, My Aged Care will arrange for an assessment by the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) member. They will visit you at home, discuss your situation, and assess your care needs. This helps determine the appropriate level of support you require. You can have a loved one with you throughout the visit, as support.

After the assessment, if you are eligible for a Home Care Package, you will receive an approval letter from My Aged Care, indicating the level that you’ve been allocated, and the next steps. You will then be placed in a queue to wait until a package becomes available to you. In the meantime, you can start researching different providers in your local area, to choose the one who best meets your needs.

If you need guidance throughout this process, you can get in touch with My Aged Care or give us a call. Our customer service team would be happy to answer any questions that you have.

Services funded by a Home Care Package that can best support people with different forms of dementia might include:

  • Personal care support, including help with bathing, grooming and getting dressed
  • Nursing services and health monitoring
  • Management of symptoms
  • Help with physical activity and lifestyle activities
  • Medication management
  • Allied health therapies such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy
  • Specialised services from a dementia carer, including cognitive stimulation activities, memory support, and strategies for managing behavioural changes.
  • Respite care to give loved ones a break from their caring responsibilities
  • Transport assistance
  • Meal preparation, grocery shopping, feed assistance and nutrition support
  • Care for complex health needs and managing chronic conditions
  • Home modifications to enhance safety and accommodate changing needs
  • Assistive technology to promote independence
  • Companionship and social activities to help combat isolation and promote mental wellbeing.
  • Support for other health conditions

If you or your loved one is living with dementia, we understand that your needs may change as the condition progresses. We’re here for you throughout the journey, and will adapt our support to suit your care needs at any given time. To achieve this, we conduct regular assessments to evaluate your current needs and make necessary adjustments to the care plan. We also encourage open communication and feedback, so we can ensure our services are the best fit for you.

Our support is designed to be flexible. As dementia progresses, we can modify the types and levels of services we provide, to best suit your changing needs. Whether it’s making adjustments in personal care, cognitive stimulation, help with the housework or companionship, we are committed to adapting our services accordingly.

We also work collaboratively with healthcare professionals, including doctors and specialists, to make sure that our care aligns with any medical recommendations they may have, and depending on the type of dementia you have. If there are changes in your health status or medical advice, we can incorporate these updates into your unique care plan.

Caring for a loved one with dementia is a deeply rewarding yet demanding job for family members. Home Caring is here to help with respite services that gives loved ones a break. Our fully trained and experienced carers can step in and provide personalised support, whether you need a few hours to run errands, attend appointments, or simply take time for yourself.
