Health care and community assistance

Perhaps you have recently left the infirmary or are looking for a place to do extra day care or help out. For you and your caregiver, there are short-term care facilities (also called transient care or short-term care) available, and daily care facilities offer possibilities for increasing autonomy and socialisation.

What kind of care you need as an elderly citizen will depend on where you are living, what your needs are, what you want to accomplish and what your health status is. Care for the elderly in a " center " and not at home. Such care includes a mixture of informal and procedural activity that promotes good aging, well-being and involvement.

Inpatient care charges differ from center to center. To find your nearest service and get more information, call My Anged Care at 1800 200 422.

For elderly persons who live at home, daily treatment centers provide therapeutic offers such as physical and podiatric treatment. This daily service helps you to keep your freedom and your freedom of movement as long as possible. Although the centers differ in terms of their sizes and the range of offerings they provide, they all have the same goal: to help older persons retain or recover their autonomy.

Daily treatment centers help you to stay at home longer by providing ergotherapy treatments (help to restore or preserve your body's performance).

Though you are supposed to be paying something for the transitional care expenses, you will still be able to receive care if you cannot affordable it.
