Family Aged Care Advocates work to keep people living in their homes as long as possible. Through individual and family consultation their aim is to provide support and close the gap in understanding about what options are available to people when they require additional care.
‘We meet with people and their families who are uncertain of the actual steps to take or who have simply given up because it’s all just too hard,’ said Shane Hayes from Family Aged Care Advocates. ‘We want people to know what is possible, how to go about it and who can help them achieve their ideal outcome.’
‘We also know that living at home longer is not just about services that we can wrap around people. It’s about being proactive in managing health, understanding the implications of certain conditions, thinking about available resources and planning. It sounds like alot of work and it can be but it can also empower people to really own how they want to live their life in this time.’
