Home care Services

Picture
Since commencing on the 18th January 2017, Rochester and Elmore District Health Service (REDHS) have been providing homecare services (inclusive of domestic assistance, personal care and respite services) for the Rochester and Elmore areas.

The Home Care service offers consumers with the following:
  • Home Care Packages
  • Disability supports
  • Local government services
  • Department of Veteran Affairs eligibility
  • Post-Acute Care and Transition Care programs.

One of the focuses of “REDHS homecare” is to support the consumer to access integrated services and support our purchasing partners with increased choice of providers.

With many local consumers already accessing services through REDHS such as district nursing, allied health, respite and Social Support Group, there are significant benefits of accessing their homecare services through REDHS – with our ability to offer competitive pricing for homecare, and our process of matching consumers with a friendly, local and reliable staff, we will provide flexibility around their current needs, appointments and activities.
