What is Community Care?

by GZD Admin / Friday, 05 October 2018 / Published in Blog
What is Community Care

Community care should be at the heart of any community to make sure that its citizens of all ages thrive and live fulfilled lives. As we grow older or experience a challenging life situation, many of us realise the value of community to support each other. Friendship and an active lifestyle is important in leading a healthy lifestyle, on a physical and emotional level.

In Australia, the term community care is used to cover programs within the community to help those who are aged, are ill or injured, or live with disabilities. These types of programs can enrich the lives of others and enable those who need support to continue being supported in their home rather than in an institution.

The type of program you access will depend on your specific situation and needs. For example, some are specifically catered for veterans. All of it depends on the type of scheme you are accessing, and your personal circumstances.

How do we incorporate community care?

Beacon Support delivers quality community care with in-home care and support, as well as supporting activities within the wider community. We have a diverse, professional and fully qualified team that can enrich the lives of others with various activities. We have provided more than 17 years of care to those in need in Queensland.

Life skills and enhancement

Learning to live independently is a skill that has to be obtained through learning and experience. We aren’t born with the skills to become independent adults overnight and for those with disabilities or supported needs it can take more development.

Sometimes it may be that a phase of life like getting older or dealing with a medical diagnosis calls upon us to learn something new to improve our quality of life.

  • Support with financial management, including banking and bills payments
  • Assistance on nutritious and easy-to-prepare meals
  • Time management support to organise daily routines effectively
  • Household skills, including maintenance and cleaning

Daily Activities

Day-to-day activities can be difficult to manage when you have a disability or are aged. We want to free up your time and ease some of the stress by supporting you in the daily activities you need help with like:

  • Assistance with personal hygiene, including bathing and grooming
  • Meal preparation and dietary planning
  • Medication reminders and management
  • Light housekeeping tasks such as laundry and dishwashing
  • Grocery shopping and errands

Social Activities

An active social life is what can enrich your life and widen your social circle. We can provide you with support for making new friends. We’ll also get you to and from all your appointments and activities. As part of our support, we can find projects and schemes that suit your lifestyle and interests to participate in such as:

  • Community group participation, such as book clubs or gardening clubs
  • Organised social outings to local events or places of interest
  • Exercise groups tailored to various mobility levels
  • Craft and hobby groups to encourage creativity and skill development

These are just some of the ways that community care can brighten up your life. Call us now 1300 435 782 on or use the contact us section to get in touch about your community care needs.

Tailored Community Care Support

Recognising the importance of support and friendship, community and aged care in Australia encompasses a variety of programs aimed at assisting those who are aged, ill, injured, or living with disabilities. These programs allow individuals to receive the necessary support within the comfort of their own homes, promoting independence and preventing institutionalisation. This post is sponsored by our partners.

Beacon Support, a registered NDIS provider, stands out by offering comprehensive in-home care and wider community support activities, backed by over 17 years of service in Queensland. Our qualified team is dedicated to enriching lives through a range of activities tailored to meet individual needs and situations. Whether it’s learning new life skills, managing daily activities, or engaging in social events, we provide support that truly makes a difference.

How We Support You:

  • Life Skills and Enhancement: From financial management to cooking and basic computer skills, we empower you to live independently.
  • Daily Activities: We assist with personal hygiene, meal preparation, medication management, housekeeping, and errands to ease your daily challenges.
  • Social Activities: Our services extend to facilitating an active social life through community group participation, organised outings, exercise groups, and more.

Community care is more than just assistance; it’s about enriching your life and expanding your social network.
