Support at Home Nambucca Heads

Support at Home in Nambucca Heads

Carexcell provides Support at Home services in Nambucca Heads and across the Nambucca Valley, helping older people remain safe, comfortable and independent at home.

Life in Nambucca Heads is closely tied to the river and the coast, and a lot of our clients have retired here after years of visiting. That can mean family are further away than they would like — which makes reliable, consistent home care all the more important.

We support clients in Nambucca Heads, Valla Beach, Hyland Park, Macksville and Bowraville.

What is Support at Home?

Support at Home is the Australian Government’s in-home aged care program. Following an aged care assessment, you are assigned a level of funding that pays for the services in your care plan — from a couple of hours of domestic help a fortnight through to daily personal care and nursing.

We will help you understand what your plan covers, what it costs you, and how to use it well rather than letting funds sit unused.

  • Personal care — showering, dressing, grooming, continence support and daily routines.

Personal care that respects your independence

Our workers help with the parts of the routine that have become difficult — usually the shower, dressing or getting started in the morning — and leave the rest with you. Consistency matters here, and we work hard to keep the same faces visiting the same homes.

Help around the home

Cleaning, laundry, bed changes, meals, shopping and light household tasks. Many Nambucca homes are on sloping blocks with steps, so we also pay attention to the small hazards — a loose mat, a dark hallway, a path that needs sweeping.

Transport, appointments and community access

Carexcell can arrange transport to appointments at Nambucca Valley HealthOne, Macksville District Hospital or specialists further afield, along with shopping trips, family visits and social outings. We can help you get ready beforehand and settle back in afterwards.
