When families are not sure where to begin

Many families contact Jade Care before they know what type of support they need.

You may be worried about a parent who is becoming weaker, missing medication, returning home from hospital, refusing help, becoming more confused, or needing more support than the family can manage alone.

You may also be trying to understand My Aged Care, Support at Home, CHSP, assessment preparation, waiting periods, private care options, or whether guardianship or other decision-making pathways need to be discussed.

Jade Care can help you slow things down, understand the situation and work out a practical next step.
