BURNIE BRAE HOME CARE PACKAGES 

 

 

 

At Burnie Brae, our goal is to help you to remain living independently at home for as long as possible.

 

Our Home Care Packages are delivered in a consumer-directed model, providing choice and flexibility in the way that the care and support is provided. Our Home Care Package Manager will meet with you and your family to discuss the things that matter most to you, to ensure an individual Care Plan can be created to reflect your unique needs. Before meeting with your case manager it can be helpful to think about what your priorities are and what goals you have, so you can discuss exactly what you need out of your Home Care Package.

 

Services may include:

 

  • Personal Care: Help with bathing, dressing, mobility and meal preparation
  • Support Services: Cleaning & transport assistance
  • Social Support
  • Home Maintenance/Modifications 
  • Clinical Care: Nursing & allied health support services

 

Burnie Brae can provide a large number of services internally, these include nursing services, home modifications and social support. Burnie Brae can help keep prices down by reducing the need to outsource services.

I approached Burnie Brae about services for my frail aged mother and she has been receiving personal care and in-home respite services for the past twelve month. Mum's carer has been so kind and caring that all of our concerns have disappeared and I can now leave her knowing that she will be well looked after.
