Home Care Assistance Newcastle can provide either hourly or around-the-clock care. Our Carers can support your loved one with the basics of everyday living and also have the specific training and experience to support the needs of those with specific health conditions such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s. Our Carers are experienced in supporting successful transitions between home and other facilities such as hospitals, respite facilities and more.
Home Care Assistance Newcastle Carers are rigorously screened including full police checks to provide you with peace of mind. Our Carers are experienced and passionate locals and are monitored and supported by our Client Care Managers who build trusted relationships with families, ensuring the highest level of personalised care.
Everyone’s care needs are unique and will change over time. Home Care Assistance Newcastle can provide the following types of care:
Focused on supporting your loved one to maintain their usual daily routines, our Carer Workers can be hired on an ‘as needed’ basis so we are there when you need us, and allow privacy and independence when you don’t.
24-hour care provides your loved one with full-time, around-the-clock care, without the need for a Care Worker to be living in the home. Ideally suited to those living with dementia or who are homebound due to physical limitations, our 24 hour care supports all daily living needs, provides safety as well as compassionate companionship for your loved one, not to mention peace of mind for families.
Live-in Care Workers are assigned to live with an older adult for a period and provide care directly in their own home. Live in Care can help with ensuring safety and consistent companionship.
One-on-one Hospital to Home Care is crucial for a safe and successful recovery when transitioning home, after hospitalisation or moving through the care continuum via a rehabilitation or medical care facility.
Home Care Assistance Newcastle understands that care for those with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or other conditions requires a specialised approach. Our Care Workers are highly skilled and experienced in caring for your loved one with these specific conditions.
Home Care Assistance offers home care on a daily and hourly basis. For more information visit our Care Services page.
Our Carers are experienced and trained in the full array of specialised care requirements that commonly affect older adults. These include:
Our experienced Carers provide safety, support and companionship. They are highly skilled and specially trained in emotional support, nutritional guidance, fall prevention, brain-sharpening activities and even light physical activity. We go to great lengths to match the perfect Carer with the individual based on personality, life experience and commonalities.
Home care provides older Australians with one-on-one assistance from a trained carer in the comfort of his or her own home. With assistance from a Carer, seniors are able to live at home independently and maintain their quality of life. The personal attention they receive vastly improves their safety, health and happiness.
With our 24-hour care service, Carers come in shifts and stay with the client around-the-clock, ready to assist with all activities of daily living and ensuring safety all hours of the day. 24/7 care provides service for those people who require close supervision at all times.
Hourly Care is exactly that care by the hour. From a
simple companion visit to transport to your GP or even meal assistance we can help with all areas of your daily activities.
By remaining at home, older family members are able to maintain the lifestyle they have been accustomed to despite needing some extra support. Staying at home with their own possessions and familiar surroundings, they are able to visit the same shops, restaurants, neighbours, parks and other familiar places that are known and loved.
Home Care Assistance brings peace of mind to families because your loved one is cared for by the best, most reliable Carers. On call to serve you 24/7, we eliminate the effort and worry of finding, screening, paying for and managing a Carer, therefore reducing stress for the whole family. Having an in-home Carer allows family members to enjoy quality time with their loved ones, instead of focusing on stressful day to day needs.

A Client Care Manager will also make regular Quality Assurance visits to ensure the quality of care is exceptional and make changes as needed.
