I want to take this opportunity to thank you, each and every one of you, for the outstanding care you have taken of my mother, and myself and siblings. You are the reason that my mother was able to come home from hospital.

Why choose home care 

Why staying at home where you feel comfortable, familiar, and empowered to live independently is the best option for people who need additional care. 

What is rehabilitation care? 

Rehabilitation care is a specific type of care that aims to help you recover after surgery, an accident or an illness. It gets you living independently again, from hospital to home.

How do I get started with rehabilitation care? 

If you know that you’re going to have surgery or a hospital stay ahead of time, you can contact us in advance to plan your rehabilitation care and your hospital to home transition.

If you’re already in hospital and planning to go home soon, contact us and we’ll make arrangements for your transition home. 

What help is available within hospital to home care? 

Hospital to home care makes sure you are safe and accompanied on your journey from hospital to your home.

Once you’re home, we’ll make sure you are well cared for, that you get nutritious meals, support you with any personal care needs and ensure that you stay on top of your medication to support your recovery. 

How much do hospital to home care services cost? 

Hospital home care services are tailored to your individual needs. To find out what the cost would be for your care, contact our team. 

What is the difference between restorative care and rehabilitation? 

Rehabilitation care focuses on getting you back to baseline after an accident, illness or surgery.

Restorative care, on the other hand, aims to go beyond this and maximise your level of health and independence.
