My wife Virginia and I are the proud owners of Home Instead - Brisbane South and we are specialist providers of in-home care for older Australians. Our CAREGiver team can help with a range of personal care and lifestyle needs while providing welcome companionship. Services include assistance with day-to-day personal care needs, light household duties and transport assistance for appointments, shopping and social outings. We specialize in support for families of clients with dementia including Alzheimer's disease. We take personal responsibility for providing the highest quality in-home care and support to meet our clients' individual needs. We are also committed to addressing the individual and national challenges of an ageing population. Over two decades, Home Instead has worked hard to enhance the lives of older Australians and their families. Put simply, our services enable ageing loved ones to live independently, in their own homes, for longer. We effectively bridge the gap between unassisted living and traditional or institutional aged care options, while helping to relieve the emotional and physical strain on families. Our day-to-day, practical assistance stimulates, encourages and assists clients to proactively maintain their health, happiness and safety, at home. We also specialize in providing support to families of clients with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. Our visits help boost the confidence and emotional well-being of our clients by providing a familiar face and safe, experienced pair of hands. Our clients are all individuals: our CAREGivers are carefully matched to ensure a 'right fit' of personality, skills and experience. Our open, honest communication style builds trusted relationships - with clients and their families - and further helps us address and anticipate individual needs. Mutual respect and trust enable us to quickly adapt and respond to our clients' changing circumstances with care and compassion. As thought leaders in aged-care, our trusted advice helps policy makers develop solutions to address one of the present era's greatest challenges. We will continue to contribute valuable resources, and advocate for choice on behalf of the consumer, as we collectively work to better meet the needs of today's - and future generations of - older Australians.
