A gentle note for families
It’s common for families to feel overloaded - especially with the sheer amount of appointments, emails, and information to read through, much of it filled with medical jargon or focused only on decline.
That's why we do things differently!
We offer short, easy-to-follow videos that share practical examples and real life insights drawn from over 20 years of clinical experience. Our goal is to help you feel informed and confident, so you can make choices that are right for your unique situation.
We’re also passionate about supporting caregivers — the often-overlooked heroes in this experience. While we can’t change the diagnosis, we can show you ways to make daily life easier and use supports that protect both your wellbeing and the wellbeing of the person you care for.
Once you have clarity and feel more supported in your own wellbeing, we can guide you in learning how to help your family member build on their strengths and abilities at home through our home programs.
What we will do:
-
Provide information in clear, simple language to support genuine understanding - so you feel informed rather than overwhelmed.
-
Share real life examples and practical recommendations - so you feel confident making choices that are right for your family.
-
Talk about some of the support options available in Australia and explore practical ways to use them - so you can choose what fits best for your situation.
-
Support you to prioritise your own wellbeing - because your health and energy matter are just as important as the person you care for.
