Sunshine Coast Respite Care

We offer two respite care options to accommodate different preferences and care needs. This includes in-home short-term respite care, where our care professionals visit the senior’s home to provide assistance and support. It also includes facility-based respite care for the elderly. With this option, seniors can visit our Wellness Centre and take part in fun activities and events. We work collaboratively with you to determine the best fit for your circumstances and ensure a comfortable and supportive environment for your loved one.

We can help you navigate the funding process. Our team is experienced in assisting clients with accessing funding through Support at Home (SaH) packages and the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP). We will guide you through the application process, providing the necessary support to ensure a smooth transition. We are committed to making this process as straightforward as possible, so you can focus on what truly matters—your loved one’s well-being.

Our staff collectively speak over 65 languages, reflecting the diverse cultural landscape of the Gold Coast.

We offer a wide variety of engaging activities tailored to individual interests and abilities. These include social gatherings, outings to local attractions, gentle exercise programs, creative arts and crafts, and opportunities for social interaction with other residents. Our goal is to provide a stimulating and enjoyable experience that fosters a sense of belonging and purpose.
