The theme of Men's Health Week 2023, from 12 to 18 June, is Healthy Habits – encouraging men and boys to build healthy habits by identifying small changes they can make that benefit their health and wellbeing.

The 28th of April will mark World Day for Safety and Health at Work. As Australia's premier home care provider we take safety and health at work very seriously.

Right at Home, Australia's quality home care provider, will celebrate World Immunisation Week from 24 to 30 April!

Right at Home, Australia's quality homecare provider, reminds us that next week marks both Harmony Day on 21 March and Harmony Week from 20 to 26 March.  

As a home care provider for vulnerable people in our community, and a network of businesses that employ a large amount of women, Right at Home celebrates International Women's Day 2023. Women’s rights have come a long way, but there’s still a lot of work to be done. On International Women’s Day, which takes place on the 8th of March every year, we celebrate the women who are leading the fight against gender bias. This year, UN Women wants to focus on how we can use innovation and technology to help empower women. The theme for 2023 is DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality.

It’s National Employee Appreciation Day and an incredibly important date in our annual calendar that falls on the first Friday of the month of March.

In the spirit of Heart Research Month this February, Right at Home, Australia's premier homecare provider, thought we'd share some valuable information on the importance of sleep. How did you sleep last night? Sadly, there is a good chance your answer is "not well". In a large, worldwide survey in 2019, 62% of adults said they slept somewhat or not at all well. Only 10% said they slept extremely well. And if you live in a country that still observes daylight saving time, you may experience additional sleep-related challenges.

It was Valentine's Day this month—we hope you all got the love and appreciation you deserve from friends and family. February also marks Heart Research Month and so we would like to share with you some valuable information on how to stay heart healthy now and into the future.  

Heat exhaustion is no joke. Neither is heatstroke. Heat-related illness can easily sneak up on the elderly and those living with a disability, and that’s why we would like to remind our community to stay safe and cool this Australia Day.  

On the 11th of November every year, Right at Home Australia joins the Commonwealth to remember those that fight for their country past, present, and future.
