Right at Home is Australia’s leading in–home care provider delivering services from domestic support such as shopping, cooking, light cleaning, and transport through to social support at home or in the community. We also provide personal care and nursing services in our clients’ homes.
Right at Home Gosford, services older Australians, people with a disability, people recovering at home after a hospital stay, and all those needing in–home care. We deliver services under government funded home care packages for levels 1 through to 4, under NDIS funding or transitioning from hospital to home via funded or private pay arrangements.
We have a team of experienced and professionally qualified staff who pride themselves on delivering quality support to clients based on their individual needs. Every client at Right at Home Gosford is allocated a care manager who will work with you and/or your family, friend or advocate to plan your supports or services and create an individualised care plan.
We stay connected and informed about our clients needs and the needs of older Australians. Research shows that our interaction within the environment of a social network reduces significantly as we age. Socially connected seniors are more likely to make healthy decisions, have better mental and physical health outcomes, and experience greater positive moods and fewer negative feelings. Right at Home Gosford has created “Right Connections” in response to this, and our clients love it! Right Connections is a social program coordinated by Registered Nurse Care Managers and is a morning of fun and learning where we get together to enjoy social connection, some fun brain games and light refreshments.
