Home and Household
Our domestic assistance services cover a wide range of household chores, including general housework such as vacuuming, mopping, making the bed, cleaning the bathroom and kitchen, taking care of the washing and laundry, and taking out the rubbish and recycling. We want you to feel comfortable and safe in your own home, and our staff are here to help you achieve that.
Allied Health and Therapy
Our specialist support services keep you healthy and moving, including physiotherapists, podiatrists, nursing staff, and more. We want you to maintain your independence and mobility for as long as possible, and our team is here to help you do just that.
Flexible Respite
We understand that caring for a loved one can be challenging, and everyone deserves a break. Our respite services provide regular day or overnight care either at home or in the community, so you can take some time for yourself and recharge.
Gardening
Spending time in the garden can be therapeutic and enjoyable, and we want you to continue doing what you love. Our garden care and maintenance services include supporting you to spend time in the garden, helping you visit a garden centre to purchase plants, taking care of garden maintenance for you, or organising someone to mow the lawns.
Meals and Groceries
Eating regular, nutritious meals is essential for your health and wellbeing. Our care workers are here to help you continue your traditions, whether it’s driving you to the shops, helping with food preparation, or even cooking the meal for you, under your guidance.
Home Modifications
We can support you to explore and arrange home modifications that will enable you to continue living at home safely. These could be minor alterations such as adding hand or grab rails, or larger changes such as upgrading and changing your bathroom or adding a ramp to enter your house.
Nursing and Specialist Clinical Care
Our Registered Nurses and qualified care workers can support you in general nursing care and daily assistance, assistance with dressings and wound management, medication management and pain management, pre and post-surgery care or hospitalisation, and managing ongoing illness. We have the expertise to treat and monitor medical conditions and help take medication.
Technology Assistance
There’s a wide range of mobility aids, assistive technology, goods, and equipment available that can support you to live well at home. Our team and allied health partners can help you find the right solution. Our approach is to discuss your needs and goals with you and your family or representative and explore options to support you.
Accompanied Transport
Our transport services can help you access your community without any hassle. We provide transport to social gatherings, events, medical and health appointments, shopping trips and running errands. Our friendly and experienced team can assist you in and out of the car and stay with you throughout your trip to make sure you feel safe and comfortable.
Social Groups and Support
At Boost Care, we understand the importance of staying connected and engaged with the community. Our social support services can help you remain, or re-establish, connections with friends, hobbies, groups, and clubs. Our care workers can visit you at home to chat, spend time in the garden together, or work on a special craft project. Social support may also be in a group setting or one-to-one basis, depending on your preferences.
