Changes to in-home care
Contributed by Somerset Assist SOMERSET Assist, a locally led coordination service, is delighted to offer an information session about the changes to in-home care under the Federal Government’s new Support at Home Program, commencing 1 July.
David Melloy, our care partner, Trilogy Care’s General Manager Communities, will present the session and provide information relevant to both existing home care package recipients and future recipients.
The changes proposed under the scheme are significant and we are here to answer your questions. Our care coordinators, Diane and Louise will also be available, and we look forward to seeing all our existing care recipients and any new people interested in understanding more about the incoming system.
The session is being held at the Kilcoy Visitor Information Centre on Wednesday 28 May from 10am.
Following the presentation, attendees are invited to stay for a light lunch, allowing more time for those important conversations and one on one questions and answers.
Interested seniors and their informal carers are asked to register by calling 0484 822 485 or emailing info@somersetassist.org.au, to help with catering.
The event is being sponsored by CleanCo Queensland, which supports initiatives by community organisations, which help Somerset communities.
From 12.30pm, any persons interested in providing care services including cleaning, gardening, social support and personal care are encouraged join, to meet Brad from Mable and to learn more about how to register.
Our Kilcoy support recipient numbers are growing and we look forward to meeting interested workers.
