SOCIAL SUPPORT AND OUTINGS

If you have a loved one that requires assistance, social support, outings and companionship, we provide services that help your loved one feel happier and not alone. Social support enhances quality of life and reduces the incidence of depression.
SQUALOR AND HOARDING CLEANS
If you or a loved one suffers from a Hoarding disorder, please do not lose hope, we can help get your home back in order as well as get you back on the right track for a healthier and happier life.
Hoarding is an emergency situation and can never be taken lightly, or allowed to continue, otherwise there will be some devastating consequences.
Hoarding affects those who have suffered a traumatic loss at one point in their lives and have the feeling of loss of control. Depression is usually accompanied with hoarding as well as poor health and sometimes will occur after a major illness such as cancer. HomeCare Australia can provide sympathetic and caring staff to assist with hoarding clearances.
