What is Aged Care Personal Care Support?

We offer support for seniors to help them receive personal care when they cannot manage it on their own due to old age. This funding aims to help aged people manage various daily and personal care tasks such as bathing, cooking and grooming.

Older people can seek NHCH assistance with their personal care needs. We provide the support to help maintain their independence and dignity.

What does Aged Care personal care include? 

A support worker under the Aged Care can help you with:

  • Personal hygiene management, such as showering, bathing, dressing, and grooming
  • Toileting, bladder and bowel management for people with continence challenges
  • Eating and drinking, including meal preparation at home
  • Attending meetings, including social and medical appointments
  • Using aids, such as hearing and communication devices

Personal care support helps people maintain their dignity and independence, especially when are old. It ensures people who cannot manage essential personal activities independently can access the right support.

To be eligible for personal care support for aged care, a person can contact NHCH.

Consumer directed care

The Regional Assessment Service will work with you to develop a personalised home support plan tailored directly to your needs. Assessors send a ‘referral for service’ to appropriate providers, such as Newcastle and Hunter Community Health, to let them know you are a new client and would like to engage their services. The provider will contact you to make further arrangements.

Alternatively, if you would like to visit or speak to a service provide to decide if they are the right fit for you, a ‘referral code’ can be sent which allows them to view your client record. The provider will review your identified needs and determine how they can assist. You then make the final decision on whether or not to engage their services.

Our caregivers are extremely friendly and compassionate. They will help ensure you live as comfortable and happy life as possible. We can assist with all kinds of personal care tasks covered under the Aged Care.
