Recently Oxley Home Care commenced providing home care personal services for my father. The Senior Care Coordinator was very prompt in coming to visit my father and in organising support within a week of my phone call enquiry. She has been very friendly and helpful, and keen to ensure that the Care Worker is a good match for my father. We appreciated her phone call following up after the Care Worker's first visit to check that Dad was happy and that his needs were being met. Dad is indeed very happy with the support of his Care Worker - "She is a delightful young lady with a personality that brightens up my day. She comes for one hour five mornings a week, and is meticulous in carrying out the allocated tasks. She is efficient and uses her initiative." Many thanks Oxley Home Care! Margaret Grainger

Oxley Home Care are real professionals, and I was lucky to find them. They followed up promptly on my initial call, and always stayed in contact. They went out of their way to help me get started with a care worker, who was always prompt and supportive. I can highly recommend them !

I do not know what I would do without Oxley Home Care. From Management/Office staff to Carer's, the service is exceptional. The level of service and the interaction of Carer's with my parents is just amazing. Absolutely exceptional. At times I have needed adhoc services urgently and Oxley Office staff has organised this with ease for me. I cannot praise Oxley Home Care enough. I know they have my parents needs and wellbeing a priority. I do not hesitate in recommending Oxley Home Care .

I have been very fortunate to find a provider like the Oxley Home Care team. From senior management to Regional care Manager, to all the lovely ladies in the office and all the care workers that have assisted in helping me take care of my mother at home, I have found them to be very professional in all aspects of there work. They have been very understanding and caring and very compassionate , always willing to do above and beyond in assisting me to take care of my mother and giving me and my family the moral support to continue to do so. I highly recommend Oxley Home Care to anyone who is in need of any type of care for themselves or for there loved ones or even for a friend. You will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Oxley Home care Team. You are amazing. Please continue the terrific work of always helping others. Thank you again. Sr. Sofia.

Older Australians wish to stay at home for as long as possible…

  • By Gilian Douglass

  • Home Care Packages

The old phrase “home is where the heart is” rings true for most of us, but particularly for older Australians who have experienced a life of memories in their family home.

More than 75 per cent of Australians over 80 years of age wish to stay in their own homes as they age and 83 per cent view home ownership as vital to maintaining independence and financial freedom as they age. These results were from a report conducted by the Productivity Commission, Housing Decisions of Older Australians, and released in December 2015.

The report analysed a Productivity Commission survey of 1,500 senior Australians aged 60 years and older, as well as data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) from the past decade, creating a strong analysis of how older Aussies really think. The survey was representative of our nation’s population in terms of age, gender, location, and socio-economic background.

It has become clear that as seniors become older, they often need support to remain independent and healthy at home. It can be difficult to do this when we are managing our own lives and balancing the demands of work and family. One solution is to offer aged care at home, allowing seniors to remain in the family home as long as possible but offering peace of mind by providing in-home private care or Home Care Packages.

The report found that in-home assistance is a cost-effective option and recommended that the government make several policy changes outlined to help older home owners remain in their homes more easily.

The Australian Government recognises that many older Australians want to stay in their own homes as long as they can. By 2050, over 3.5 million Australians will access aged care each year with around 80 per cent of the services delivered in the community.

The Government has committed $955.4 million over the next five years to help people stay at home through:

·        streamlined access to entry-level care services through the Commonwealth Home Support Programme

·        more Home Care Packages

·        greater choice and flexibility through Consumer Directed Care across all new Home Care Packages and

·        fairer means-testing arrangements for Home Care Packages.

For the last decade, Oxley Home Care’s staff have been providing Private Care, Home Care, Nursing and Allied Health  which enable people to live in their own home throughout the Sydney Metropolitan area.

Oxley Home Care is an Approved Provider of Home Care Packages funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing and holds an allocation of Home Care Packages. These packages are designed to provide assistance to the elderly to remain living at home.

Oxley Home Care’s mission is to empower people; regardless if they are frail or aged, by providing quality services specifically tailored to meet their individual needs.

Our care philosophy focuses on Consumer Directed Care (CDC), a philosophy designed to empower you to make informed decisions about the type of care and support services you believe best meet your loved one’s needs. To find out further information, call Oxley Home Care on 1300 993 591.

To gain access to a Home Care Package, the Government requires that you undergo a comprehensive assessment by your local Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT). To arrange the assessment contact My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 or visit the My Aged Care website.

Testimonials from our valued clients.

My Care Worker, Karin, is so efficient, capable and caring. She has proved to be intelligent, reliable, conscientious and her integrity is undoubted. She has been a huge factor in my living in my own home with all my health problems.
Her assistance in so many ways has contributed greatly to me achieving this and hopefully will continue for some time to come. I am very lucky to have the assistance of such a capable and understanding Care Worker from Oxley Home Care.

Brian, Wahroonga

Testimonials from our valued clients.

Our experience with Oxley is seamless, friendly, pro-active and extremely supportive. We would like to make special mention of their speedy response times when adhoc requests for care services are made. As shift workers this service is invaluable and Ashley goes above and beyond in these communications and interactions with us.
Anna has been amazing offering advice and is open minded to trialling and sourcing new devices to assist us.
Maria is an exceptional carer who does more than required and was able to make a quick connection and friendship with our mother.
Thank you team!
