Private care enable clients to receive support and assistance unavailable through government subsidised support. This can occur for a variety of reasons including means testing or accepting a lower level of home care packages than required.
Co.As.It.’s aim is to support every individual’s choice of care. We are conscious of the desire to remain living in your own home for as long as possible. The right care for you can be difficult and confusing to find, it will involve your family, friends, professional carers and health care professionals.
Co.As.It.’s private services enable you to receive care within your own home, as well as access other support such as social activities, social groups, meals preparation, transport, shopping, cleaning and managing medication, to ensure that you maintain your physical well being, mental and cognitive health and quality of life.
Services include:
As an “approved provider” you can rest assured that the care provided to you or your loved one is one of a high standard. We can support you short term or long term.
These are assessed by Co.As.It so services can be accessed very quickly.
Private care can be provided on an as needed basis. There are many situations where private care is helpful. For example, you might use this service for post surgery care and support; for a visiting interstate or overseas relative who requires care or social support; when care is required immediately.
