Care Companion

Ongoing Support & Coordination.

When you need more than just information — you need someone by your side.

If you’re navigating aged care and feeling like it’s all too much to manage alone, this service is for you.

Whether you’re waiting on assessments, unsure how to respond to referrals, or just feeling lost at the start of the process — I’ll walk alongside you, step by step, until you have care in place. No jargon. No guesswork. Just calm, steady support that keeps things moving in the right direction.

What we’ll do together:

Over a series of sessions, I’ll:

  • Get to know your personal goals and care needs

  • Review where you’re at in the process and what’s already been done

  • Help you prepare for your ACAS (or reassessment), including what to expect and what to ask

  • Review your assessment outcome and translate the language so it actually makes sense

  • Recommend the best next steps, tailored to your situation

  • Help get interim services or supports in place while you wait

What you'll receive:

  • A clear, personalised plan with recommendations

  • Up to 4 hours of direct support, provided over multiple sessions

  • Follow-up communication to check in, answer questions, and offer guidance as new steps come up

Whether you’re planning ahead or in the middle of a complex situation, you’ll have someone in your corner — helping you feel more in control and supported.
