At Home Caring, we offer flexible home care packages that cover everything from personal care to specialist nursing and disability and dementia care. Whether you need a hand with washing, cooking, or getting dressed, or you have a relative who requires round-the-clock care, we can devise a suitable plan for you.

We offer an extensive range of home care services in North Melbourne, including:

Personal care

We understand that it can be upsetting and frustrating to feel like you can’t go about your daily business at home when tasks like showering and preparing meals become more complex and time-consuming. At Home Caring, we offer a comprehensive personal care package, which is designed to enable people to live as independently as possible and to enjoy the comfort and familiarity of home. Our experienced team of caregivers is there to assist and support, rather than to take over, and we hope to build our client’s confidence and ensure that they feel safe and comfortable at all times. Our personal care services include:

  • Showering, bathing and bed baths
  • Dressing
  • Shaving
  • Assisting with toileting
  • Dental care
  • Helping with hair styling and applying makeup
  • Preparing meals and cooking
  • Making drinks and snacks

It’s incredibly important to us that we provide a personalised service for all our clients, and we take the time to get to know families so that we can work to a routine or incorporate preferences or habits that will help to make the transition to home care smoother and ensure the best possible outcomes. If your relative has a favourite meal, or they like to have a cup of tea and a snack at the same time every morning, for example, we will make use of this information. Often, the little things make a huge difference.

Home care

In addition to providing personal care, we offer home care packages that are geared towards clients who require a higher level of assistance and nursing services. If your loved one takes medication on a regular basis, they use a hoist to get into the bath and they need help with mobility, we have experienced caregivers on hand to provide expert domiciliary care services. All our packages are tailored to the individual client based on the findings of their assessment, recommendations from health professionals, and also their personal preferences. Our home care services also include light housework, help with shopping, and assistance with getting out and about and engaging in community-based, social activities.

Dementia care in North Melbourne

It is estimated that more than 400,000 people in Australia have dementia. Dementia is a progressive condition, which can cause a diverse range of symptoms and signs. Our dementia care services improve quality of life at the same time as providing partners and families with peace of mind that their loved one is in safe hands. We have a team of experienced caregivers with expertise in dementia care, and we provide an array of services to benefit individuals and their carers.

In addition to in home care in North Melbourne, which covers everything from nursing to personal care, we also provide a host of therapies, including reminiscence and validation therapy and music and memory therapy. We often find that personalised music programmes help to make clients feel calm and relaxed, and they can also stimulate memory recall and help people to connect with family and friends through memories and positive associations. Reminiscence therapy is another option that has proven hugely successful for dementia sufferers. This form of therapy involves using pictures, sounds and pieces of music to trigger memories and enable people to recapture feelings and emotions associated with them.

At Home Caring, we understand that our clients want to live independently, and we provide services that enable them to do this safely and securely.

All our palliative caregivers receive advanced training in end of life care to ensure optimum outcomes for clients and their families and friends.

Respite care

We know that time is precious, especially if you have a loved one who has a terminal illness. It can be incredibly difficult to find the time to support and care for a family member when you work, or you have children or other relatives to care for. Our respite care services are designed to enable you to take a break and have a little bit of time to yourself. We understand how difficult it can be to enlist the help of others to take care of somebody who is special to you, and we have established a reputation based on compassion and professionalism. We’ll be there to help you and your loved one when times are tough. Our respite services enable you to have time off, but they also enhance the quality of the time you have with your relative or friend.

At Home Caring, we design flexible, person-centred care packages that respond to the individual needs and preferences of the client. We offer everything from hourly calls to overnight care and 24-hour assistance, and we can adapt and modify packages in line with changing requirements or demands. The services we provide can be adjusted to suit each client, and we are committed to providing a client-focused service, which takes the individual’s routine, habits, hobbies, interests, and personal preferences into account. If your father has a favourite snack or your mother likes to meet up with friends for a coffee every Wednesday afternoon, we’ll do everything we can to create care plans that promote happiness and contentment, as well as encouraging independence. For many people, routine is very important, and we don’t want to upset the apple cart or cause confusion.

The nature of in home care means that we often have to make adjustments. If there are any changes in your family member’s health, or their mobility is deteriorating, for example, we can modify the package to better tend to their requirements. We will always discuss any changes with clients and their families.
