Why Ballajura families choose Right at Home for home care

When families start comparing home care in Ballajura, what they are really weighing up is trust. Our caregivers are matched to each client on values and personality as well as skill, so the person who arrives each week becomes a familiar face rather than another name on a roster.

That covers everything from a couple of hours of domestic help through to daily personal care, in home nursing, respite for family carers and specialist dementia support. As needs change the plan changes with them, so you are not starting the search again in six months. You can see the full range on our services page.

We support Ballajura clients through the government funded Support at Home program, and we also offer private care so help can start without waiting on an assessment. Right at Home Perth Northern Suburbs is the local team behind it, with Care Managers who come to you rather than working from another state.

Home care funding and what it costs

Government funded home care comes through the Support at Home program. What you contribute depends on an assessment of your circumstances rather than a fixed price list, which is why no honest provider can quote you a single number up front.

If you have not been assessed yet, that is the first step, and we can walk you through it. Full details of pricing and inclusions for this office are on our services page.

Common questions about home care in Ballajura

How much does home care cost in Ballajura?

There is no single price. Under Support at Home your contribution is worked out from your income and assets as assessed by Services Australia, and your funding covers the rest. Two people in the same street can pay quite different amounts. The only way to know where you stand is to have the assessment done, and we can explain what the result means in practice.

What are the different types of care at home?

Broadly three. Help around the house and with daily tasks, personal care such as showering and dressing, and clinical care from a registered nurse. Most people start with one and add the others as needs change, which is why a care plan should be reviewed rather than set once and left.

What are the three types of aged care?

Usually described as help at home, residential aged care, and short term or respite care. Help at home is what most people want and what we provide. Residential care means moving into a facility. Short term care covers recovery after a hospital stay or a break for a family carer, and can be delivered at home too.

What is the 28 day rule for aged care?

That rule belongs to residential aged care, not home care. It refers to the number of days of leave a resident can take from a facility each year while keeping their place. Home care has no equivalent, because the care comes to the person rather than the person moving into a facility. If you go away or into hospital, services simply pause and restart.

When families in Ballajura start looking for home care

Almost nobody plans this in advance. Most families in Ballajura (6066) call us in the middle of something, and these are the three moments we hear about most.

  • After a stay in hospital

    Coming home is the hard part. We help through the first few weeks, from personal care and medication reminders to in home nursing, so a recovery does not turn into a readmission.

  • When the family carer is running on empty

    If you are the one doing everything, respite care is not giving up. A few hours a week, or a longer break, is what keeps you well enough to keep going.

  • When memory changes make home feel unsafe

    Dementia support works best when it is familiar and consistent: the same caregivers, a steady routine, and someone who notices what is changing.

Not sure which one you are? That is exactly what the free consultation is for. You can also call Right at Home Perth Northern Suburbs on 08 6202 8033 and just ask.

Book your free consultation

Call us or send a message, and we arrange a free consultation at home in Ballajura, at a time that suits you.

We listen, then plan the care

We talk through the daily routine, what is getting harder and what would genuinely help, then build a care plan around that rather than around a package.

We check your funding options

We work out whether Support at Home funding applies, help you through the My Aged Care assessment, and set out what private care looks like if you would rather start now.

We match the right caregiver

Once the plan is agreed we match a caregiver on skills, background and interests, not simply on who happens to be free that day.

You meet your care team

Your Care Manager introduces the caregiver in person before the first visit, so nobody unfamiliar turns up at the door.

We review as needs change

Care needs shift over time. We check in and adjust the plan with you, whether that means more personal care, nursing support or respite.
