Navigating the world of aged care can be daunting. Naturally there are many questions around what to expect, what’s involved and the best choice for you or your loved one.

 

What is aged care and what type of aged care is best for me?

Discussing care can be a difficult and emotional process. Usually it can occur within very short time frames, or as an emergency pre-caution. Therefore it’s important to understand what care entails, how it works and whether it’s right for you or your loved one.

Care can be great for many people and their family members who need specialist medical support, company or even short-term respite for a few hours a week. While it may feel confusing or stressful at first, there are some clear indication signs that you or a loved one may benefit from additional care. These are worth checking and having an open conversation with yourself or your loved one

There are many different types of care and it’s important to consider what’s best for you and your loved ones. At Radius we offer a range of aged care services depending on the level of support you may need. In many cases, it can be as short as a few days, although there are also longer-term options too.
