Our goal is to help you live well, stay connected and maintain independence in the place you feel most comfortable: home.
Carexcell provides Support at Home services across Newcastle, helping older people live safely and confidently in their own homes.
Newcastle has excellent health services, good transport and a huge range of community organisations — but having options and being able to use them are two different things. A lot of the value we add here is simply making the system work for you: coordinating services, arranging transport, and making sure appointments and reviews do not fall through the cracks.
We support clients across Newcastle and in New Lambton, Charlestown, Mayfield, Merewether and Wallsend.
Support at Home is the Australian Government’s aged care program for older people living at home. It funds clinical supports such as nursing, independence supports such as personal care and transport, and everyday living services such as cleaning and meals.
Your assessed classification sets your quarterly budget. What you contribute depends on your income assessment and the type of service — and we will explain how that works for your situation before anything begins.
We match workers to clients and keep that pairing consistent wherever possible. Personal care typically covers morning or evening routines, showering, dressing, grooming and safe movement around the home, with as much independence retained as you can safely manage.
Cleaning, laundry, linen changes, meal preparation, shopping support and light household jobs. In older Newcastle homes with steep steps and narrow hallways, keeping walkways clear is a genuine safety measure, not just tidiness.
Carexcell can support transport to appointments at John Hunter Hospital, local medical centres and allied health, along with shopping, family visits and social activities — including help preparing beforehand and settling in afterwards.
