Guiding You Through the Complexities of Aged Care

Aged care planning and management involves a variety of important decisions, often complicated by personal circumstances and family dynamics. At Astute Care, we recognise these complexities and are committed to providing you with the support and guidance you need to navigate this journey with confidence. Our services are designed to be both comprehensive and adaptable, ensuring that your aged care plan remains effective and respectful of your wishes.

Objective, Independent Support

One of the critical aspects of our service is acting as an objective, independent voice during sensitive family discussions. We understand that conversations about aged care can be emotionally charged and challenging. As impartial professionals, we provide a balanced perspective and facilitate constructive dialogue amongst family members. Our role is to act as a conduit to a mutually agreeable way forward, ensuring that everyone's concerns are heard and addressed.

Adapting to Changing Circumstances

Life is unpredictable, and personal circumstances can change unexpectedly. At Astute Care, we are committed to adapting your aged care plan as needed. Whether it's due to health changes, family dynamics, or other unforeseen events, we can update your plan to ensure it continues to reflect your needs and wishes. Our team is ready to advocate on your behalf, making sure that your preferences are honored throughout the process.

Reflecting Wishes and Family Decisions

Ensuring that your aged care plan remains aligned with your wishes and your family's decisions is at the heart of our service. We regularly review and update the plan to make sure it stays relevant and effective. Our personalised approach ensures that your care plan continues to reflect what matters most to you and your loved ones.

Low Means and DVA Advice

Navigating the financial aspects of aged care can be particularly challenging for individuals with low means or those eligible for Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA) benefits. We can provide additional information around the available support and resources.

Supporting Couples Through Transitions

Aging and care needs can have a significant impact on couples, particularly when one partner requires more care than the other. We offer guidance and support to couples facing this transition, helping them navigate the emotional and practical challenges involved. Our goal is to ensure that both partners receive the care and support they need while maintaining their relationship and quality of life.

When couples become singles due to illness or loss, we provide compassionate support to the surviving partner. We help them adjust to their new circumstances and ensure that their care plan is updated to reflect their current needs and wishes.

Regular Seminars and Webinars

Education and awareness are key components of effective aged care planning. We offer regular seminars and webinars designed to provide valuable insights and information. These sessions cover a variety of topics, from understanding aged care options to navigating the complexities of the system. By attending our seminars and webinars, you can stay informed and confident in your decision-making process.

Keeping you informed about the latest developments in aged care is a priority for us. We offer monthly newsletters, articles, and other free informational resources to help you stay up-to-date.
