Short-Term Restorative Care

A Uniting AgeWell Care Advisor will work with you to develop your STRC program.

This will be a personalised package of care services that:

• will help you meet your individual goals
• focus on specific therapies
• is for a short-term period only (up to 8 weeks).

Our Care Advisors will work with you to design a care plan to meet your
individual needs.

Depending on your circumstances, you may receive:

• Personal care, including help with showering and dressing
• Domestic support, including help with household chores
• Shopping for groceries and meal preparation
• Home or garden maintenance or home modifications to maintain safety and independence
• Transport for shopping, medical appointments or social outings
• Provision of assistive technology, including remote monitoring systems, mobility aids and personal safety alarms
• In-home nursing, such as medication management and wound care
• Other services like social support, allied health and more.

To get started, you will require an Aged Care Assessment. Our team can help you organise this.

Once you have completed your Aged Care Assessment, you will receive a referral through myagedcare.gov.au. Our team will then reach out to you to make your first appointment.
