ELDERCARE

The Elder Care Division of AM HOME HELP Agency has been responsible for providing services on behalf of over 6000 families and their care givers of Sydney and its surrounds for the past thirty years.

AM HOME HELP Agency enables our older adult population to remain vital and participating members of society.  This is done by encouraging them to live as independently as possible in a dignified and safe environment. 

If you wish to know more about our Elder Care Division, call Joe on 9977 0688 or e-mail info@amhomehelp.com.au.

 The Elder Care Services we provide are in a safe environment for residents, ranging from low care residential, nursing home, retirement villages as well as private home care.

The focus of residential care is the provision of an appropriate environment that supports people's choice and promotes their  

                                                          quality of life.

Aged care services also incorporate many specialist services and may include:

  • Comprehensive assessment
  • Palliative care
  • Wound management
  • Medication management
  • Continence management
  • Pain management
  • Dementia care
  • Carer support
  • Respite care

To ensure the highest standard of care, A.M. Home Help Agency works with other health and community service providers such as hospitals, general practitioners, Protective Commissioner, ACAT Services. The level of care required by each resident is assessed prior to commencement of service.
