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 Port Macquarie and the Hastings, helping older people stay living safely and independently in their own homes.
Port Macquarie has one of the largest older populations in regional New South Wales, and with that comes plenty of choice in providers. What tends to matter most to the families we speak with is not the brochure — it is whether the same worker turns up each week, whether the phone gets answered, and whether someone will actually do something when circumstances change.
We support clients in Port Macquarie, Thrumster, Lake Cathie, Lighthouse Beach and Flynns Beach.
Support at Home is the Australian Government’s aged care program for older people living at home. It covers 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 determines your quarterly budget, and your contribution depends on your income assessment and the type of service. We will walk you through how that applies to you before anything starts.
We match support workers to clients thoughtfully and keep that pairing consistent. Personal care usually covers morning or evening routines, showering, dressing, grooming and safe movement around the home, always with as much independence retained as possible.
Cleaning, laundry, bed changes, meal preparation, shopping support and light household jobs. Keeping a home clear and organised is one of the simplest and most effective ways to reduce falls risk.
With Port Macquarie Base Hospital, private hospitals, specialists and allied health all in town, appointments add up. Carexcell can help you prepare, get you there, provide assistance where you need it, and make sure you are comfortable at home afterwards.
