✨ HOME MODIFICATIONS ✨

A reminder for aged care recipients receiving in-home care as part of the Home Care Package program, that you can make home modifications to support your ageing. My Aged Care offers funding assistance for changes to your home that help you live safely and independently.

Modifications to your home should always reflect your assessed needs. For example, if you’re concerned about falling, you might consider installing grab rails in your shower.

Here are some common household modifications that can improve your safety and independence:

🎄Grab rails – prevents falls in the shower, bath, or toilet

🎄Ramps – ensures easy wheelchair access

🎄Easy-access taps – helps if you have arthritis or a weakened grip

🎄Accessible cooking appliances – provides assistance for those with mobility challenges

🎄Long-handled gardening tools – enhances safety while gardening

🎄Step modifications – ensures safer movement around your home

🎄Handrails – improves safety on stairs

🎄Adapted cutlery – assists those with weak grips or tremors while eating

If you’re unsure about the types of modifications you need, please reach out to me so I can arrange a referral for an in-home assessment to recommend modifications tailored to your circumstances.

I’m here to help and look forward to hearing from you.

Much love to all,

Judith 💜

Helping Make the Holiday Season Dementia-Friendly as a Care Worker 🎄✨

The holiday season is about togetherness, but for those living with dementia and their carers, it can sometimes feel overwhelming.

As a care worker, you can make a big difference by following a few simple tips to ensure everyone enjoys the festivities:

✅ Stick to familiar routines and environments.
✅ Create a quiet space for those who may need a break from the hustle and bustle.
✅ Encourage family and friends to share the caring role.
✅ Find ways to make people with dementia feel valued – like asking them to help with a task.
✅ Seek support if needed - The National Dementia Helpline (1800 100 500) is always there.

“As soon as I got the diagnosis, I called the National Dementia Helpline. I was really impressed with how the Helpline Advisors explained things and the immense amount of information that I could see would be available to me.

“It’s not just a one-stop-shop it’s a pathway.”

Becky, who lives with dementia, said that the National Dementia Helpline helped provide her with support and guidance when she first learned of her diagnosis.

The National Dementia Helpline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year – even public holidays!

The festive season can be extra challenging for people living with dementia and their families, but we are here for you.

There is no question too big or small and no time too late to call the National Dementia Helpline on 1800 100 500. Or use our 24-hour live chat at https://www.dementia.org.au/get-support/national-dementia-helpline/helpline-live-chat
