I need help to live independently at home
Change and growing older is a normal part of life. Sometimes, as we grow older, it gets more difficult to do things at home that used to be easy.
If you—or someone that you love—can no longer stay independent at home, you can always get support. Here are some options that might help.
If you would prefer to talk with someone, we are always available for a friendly, obligation-free chat about the best option for you. Call us on 13 22 78.
Different ways Baptcare can help:
Access home care services in your home
If you need a little extra help, you can ask for qualified carers to help you in your own home. This is called Home Care (some people also call it ‘in-home support’, ‘care support’, or ‘in-home care’).
Consider the move to a retirement living community
If you’d like to live independently while being part of a friendly community—with support, security and companionship—retirement living is the perfect option.
Get comprehensive support at a residential aged care home
If you—or your loved one—can no longer live comfortably at home, you can move to a safe and supportive community where nurses and healthcare supports are always available. This can be for a short time, or a longer time. This type of support is called residential aged care.
