Carmon's Story

At HammondCare we prioritise understanding the unique needs and stories of our clients to enrich their lives. One such client, Carmon, was initially reserved when it came to sharing her interests. When introduced to Angela from the Brisbane team, she preferred to continue to enjoy her own activities independently. 

Angela introduced Carmon to a sticker version of colouring books, leading to a memorable bonding session filled with smiles and laughter. This experience not only strengthened their relationship but also made Carmon more receptive to Angela's visits, allowing her husband Joe to feel at ease with stepping out.

The story exemplifies our commitment to fostering genuine connections and enhancing the wellbeing of those in our care.

How to get home care assistance

Step 1

Apply for funding

Check your eligibility by calling My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 or do an online check.

If you’re eligible for a Government subsidy, you’ll complete a face-to-face assessment organised by My Aged Care.

Step 2

Meet our team

Once you’re approved, speak to a friendly, experienced member of our Support Team to discuss your care services.

You can also talk to us about private care if you need extra support on top of your subsidised care.

Step 3

Use your services

We’ll design a care plan with you and agree on what support best suits your needs. When you’re happy with it and have funding, your care will start.

Should you need to update your services for any reason, we can help.

Take a break through Respite Care

Spend a day socialising at our social clubs and enjoy a break from your normal routine. This can also give carers a well-deserved rest.

Meeting new people and experiencing activities outside of your home can be refreshing and uplifting. Our clubs have plenty of activities to enjoy in caring, friendly day centres. These activities include:

  • social events
  • board games
  • bus outings
  • crafts
  • gardening
  • helping in the kitchen and more
  • exercise sessions

You can expect home-cooked meals served fresh while catching up with friends, or making new ones. If you’d simply rather relax and enjoy the company, that’s okay too.

Know the costs involved from day one

It’s important to understand the fees and costs upfront, so you know exactly what to expect. Costs will vary depending on your unique needs and if you have Government subsidy approval. But don’t worry, we’ll tell you everything you need to know to make an informed choice.

You can find the latest cost information on the Home Care Costs page.
