Residential Care

If your care needs become more complex and it is no longer possible to manage safely at home, you may consider moving into a residential aged care Home, such as one of our Regis Homes.

Residential aged care, sometimes referred to as an aged care Home or nursing home, offers 24/7 support from a compassionate and qualified team. This includes help with daily living, personal care (such as showering or toileting), and clinical care tailored to your individual health needs.

A common question many people ask when beginning their aged care journey is: “Am I eligible for government-subsidised aged care services?”

You may be eligible if you have:

• noticed changes in your memory or ability to manage daily tasks
• a medical condition or reduced mobility
• had a recent change in your care arrangements, or
• experienced a fall or hospital stay.

The first step is to have an assessment, which is typically done in person at your home.

You can visit My Aged Care and complete their eligibility checker.

Regis has Homes across Australia, all of which provide professional care services that are shaped around the needs of each resident.

We know that home means different things to different people. We encourage you to visit our Homes to get a better understanding of how we can accommodate your personal circumstances and preferences. This is a good opportunity to ask any questions you may have and get a sense of what life is like at the Home.

Some common questions to ask include:

• What lifestyle activities are available?
• What items can my loved one bring? 
• What food is provided? 
• What are some features of the Home? 
• What care and support are provided?
