I Saw the Signs and Chose Support!

Ever heard the saying, “She’ll be right” or “Eat some concrete”. As Australians we tend to tough things out and avoid showing when we are struggling. 

As we get older we don’t want to be a burden to our loved ones. But needing help is nothing to be ashamed of. Recognising when “She’ll be right” is no longer quite right can be an important step towards staying safe and independent at home.  

For Jane*, the signs appeared through changes in her health. After developing pneumonia, she spent eight days in the respiratory ward at a hospital. When she returned home to recover, the effects of illness and medication left her feeling weak, and she experienced several heavy falls that resulted in lumbar spine fractures.

That is when Jane knew she needed additional support to remain safely at home. She applied for government funded care and chose Right at Home as her supplier.  

With the Support from Right at Home team, Jane began to regain confidence at home. Her house became easier to manage, and with help maintaining her garden, she was able to enjoy one of her favourite activities again.

If you are also starting to notice some signs, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Talk to Right at Home today. Our team can guide you through the entire process during a free in-home consultation, helping you understand the support options available.
