This is where live in care can help. Live in home care is when a carer stays the night in your home, and offers one-to-one support. While they provide active care during the day (e.g. for a period of eight hours), they are also on-hand through the night if you need assistance. If you aren’t ready to move into an aged care home, live in care allows you to stay at home and remain close to your local community. Your family can have peace of mind knowing you are safe and well cared for, while you enjoy quality of life.
Home Caring provides professional home care services, tailored to your needs.

If they have high care needs, one option is live in care for elderly people. If they aren’t receiving government-funded aged care, you can start the process together. The first step is applying for an assessment with ACAT (the Aged Care Assessment Team) through My Aged Care. You can do this on their website or by calling My Aged Care on 1800 200 422. It takes about 20 minutes of your time. Once your loved one has applied (or you have done so on their behalf), your local ACAT assessor will be in touch to arrange a free face-to-face assessment at home. You can be with them for the entire process.
Once your loved one has been approved for government aged care funding, it’s time to starting looking for a home care provider that meets their needs. As you explore your options, you’ll have an opportunity to meet the care team, ask any questions you have, and see if they are a good fit for the person receiving care.
