Care and support services

You want your retirement experience to be a comfortable and safe one. It's important to know what care and support services can be available to suit your needs.

Types of care and support services

In a retirement village, you can often easily access a variety of services to help you stay independent, including:

  • Housekeeping: For support around your home, such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, transport and gardening.
  • Personal care: For support with daily living such as mobility assistance, showering, dressing and grooming.
  • Wellbeing: For lifestyle assistance, with offerings such as social visits, exercise classes and IT support.
  • Clinical care and allied health: For access to a registered nurse, occupational therapy, physio, podiatry, speech, hearing and vision support and more.

Retirement village support services

Retirement homes can come with additional support services to help you with daily living. This could include:

  • Maintenance and gardening to keep the community gardens and grounds looking beautiful and to ensure village facilities like pools and community BBQs are working well.
  • Housekeeping for an extra helping hand with household chores like cleaning and heavy laundry. These can sometimes be included as part of your monthly fees or alternatively available as services that can be added on at an extra fee.
  • Meals and dining with tailored, chef-prepared healthy meals catering to your dietary needs.

Home Care Packages

If you’re starting to need a little extra support to keep living safely and comfortably at home, you may be eligible for a government-funded Home Care Package.

Through this, there are many services available to help you live independently and enjoy more time for the things you love.

You may be able to access services to help you with housecleaning, grocery shopping, travelling to appointments and day-to-day living, in addition to health care and other needs.

Retirement village residents can apply for and receive Home Care Packages. Find out more about Home Care Packages.

Fee-for-service support

If you’re waiting for a Home Care Package, or hoping to access a little more support than what your package provides, you can often arrange to pay for services - including housekeeping or personal care - directly with the Home Care provider.

Safety always comes first

Retirement villages often feature a 24-hour in-home emergency call system, and some villages may even have a staff member on-site or available to call outside of office hours in case of an emergency.

You can feel confident heading off on holidays, with properties easy to lock up and go with staff and neighbours looking out for the safety and wellbeing of others.

In a retirement village, you'll likely feel well looked after. There's a sense of security that comes with having a large community around you.
