What we see in practice is that overwhelm builds when care is set up reactively,
without clear decisions, defined roles, or agreed communication from the start.

When those foundations are in place early, families feel more confident,
care workers work more consistently, and issues are addressed before they escalate.

That structure is what turns care from stressful to sustainable.

We created a simple guide to help families lock these in from the start.

Comment "CARE" for the guide.

Peace of mind doesn’t come from “having help.”
It comes from knowing care is clear, consistent, and handled properly.
For most families, the stress isn’t the support itself.

It’s the uncertainty:
• Are we doing this right?
• What happens if things change?
• Who’s actually coordinating everything?
In-home support works best when it’s not just present, but structured.

We broke this down in our latest blog "how in-home support services give families peace of mind", not more decisions to manage.

If you’re supporting a loved one at home, this is worth reading!

Pause challenge time 👀🖐️

This little tool is designed to support daily hygiene with better grip, control, and precision, especially for older adults or anyone with reduced hand strength or dexterity.

Here’s how this supports daily independence:
✅ Improves grip stability for reduced hand strength
✅ Reduces compensatory wrist and shoulder strain
✅ Supports controlled, one-handed use when needed
Simple. Practical. Purpose-built for everyday independence.

This Valentine’s Day isn’t just about flowers and cards.

It’s also about care that’s steady, unseen, and often carried alone.
And caring for the body that carries you through life.

Whether you’re a care manager supporting multiple clients, or a family member looking after someone you love, you don’t have to do everything yourself.

Our Allied Health team supports older adults with coordinated, professional care, so you can step back, recharge, and know your loved one is in good hands.

As we get older, it’s often the small tasks that quietly become harder.
Not because of ability, but because tools weren’t designed with changing hands in mind.

Grip strength changes.
Joint stiffness increases.
Control matters more.
That’s where thoughtful design makes a difference.

Easy Grip Scissors are created to feel steadier, softer on the hands, and easier to control, helping everyday tasks stay manageable without strain or frustration.

Because independence isn’t about doing everything alone.
It’s about having tools that support how your body works now.

If your parent or loved one was previously on a Home Care Package, you may hear the word “transitioned” and feel unsure about what has changed.

Since last November 2025, Home Care Packages were replaced by the Support at Home program. Existing clients were transitioned into the new program so support could continue under an updated structure. This does not mean care suddenly stops or starts over. It means services now sit within a new system designed to be clearer and more responsive over time.

Understanding this transition can help families feel more confident, reduce unnecessary worry, and know what questions to ask as Support at Home continues to roll out nationally.

Follow us to stay informed as we continue sharing clear updates about Support at Home and in-home care.

Under Support at Home, the Care Partner role replaces the traditional case manager — but the purpose remains the same: coordination, oversight, and continuity.

Care Partners focus on planning, monitoring, and reviewing services so supports remain aligned with the client’s needs, funding, and goals over time. They are not the service providers themselves, but the link that helps ensure everything works together safely and effectively.

Clear understanding of this role helps families, care managers, and providers set realistic expectations and avoid confusion as the Support at Home program continues to roll out.

Worried about falls risk for your client?

Falls prevention works best when it’s proactive, not reactive. A coordinated allied health pathway helps identify risks early, address physical contributors, and support long-term safety at home.

At Summit ACT, our falls prevention approach brings together occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and ongoing exercise support to help clients stay mobile, confident, and independent.

This pathway supports safer daily movement, clearer care planning, and continuity across services without overcomplicating coordination.

If you’re a care manager planning support for clients at risk of falls, we’re here to collaborate.

At Summit Health Solutions, we’re grateful for the dedicated clinicians who quietly make a real difference every day. Today, we want to recognize Dieu, one of our Occupational Therapists, and the meaningful work she brings to our clients and community.

Dieu holds a Master of Occupational Therapy from the University of Canberra and has a strong focus on community and aged care. Her work centers on supporting older adults to maintain independence, safety, and quality of life, helping people continue to engage in meaningful daily activities while living with dignity in their own homes.

We’re thankful for the care, thoughtfulness, and professionalism Dieu brings to our team and to the people we support every day.

HEAR US OUT: Access to therapy should never depend on a postcode, transport, or physical ability to leave home.

For many older adults, traditional clinic-based care isn’t realistic. This includes people living in rural areas, residents in residential aged care facilities (RACFs), and clients who are housebound due to mobility, health, or safety concerns.

Our telehealth exercise classes are designed to close that gap.
They allow older adults to:
• Stay active and supported from home or care facilities
• Access physiotherapy-informed exercise without travel
• Maintain strength, balance, and confidence safely
• Remain engaged, consistent, and supervised by allied health professionals

For care managers, RACFs, and providers, telehealth offers a practical way to:
• Extend allied health access where in-person services are limited
• Support continuity of care
• Reduce barriers to participation
• Offer a scalable, safe movement option for diverse client needs

If you support clients who are rural, housebound, or living in residential care, we welcome you to trial referrals and see how telehealth can complement your current care pathways.

Care coordination shouldn’t require multiple referrals for one client.

When occupational therapy, physiotherapy, telehealth exercise, and in-home support operate separately, delays and service gaps are more likely. Coordinated care improves continuity, communication, and outcomes for older adults.

Care managers already balance complex plans, changing needs, and limited time. Having one point of referral helps streamline processes while keeping the client at the centre of care.

Learn how Summit Health Solutions supports coordinated allied health and in-home services through a single referral.

Bathrooms are one of the highest-risk areas in the home, especially when strength, balance, or confidence starts to change.

An over-toilet frame chair can:
• Provide stable arm support for sit-to-stand
• Reduce strain on knees and hips
• Support independence with toileting
• Lower the risk of slips and sudden loss of balance

This foldable frame is often recommended as part of:
• Falls-prevention planning
• Home safety modifications
• Post-hospital or post-rehab support
• Ageing-in-place strategies

Small equipment choices can make a big difference to safety, dignity, and confidence at home.
