Maintaining Independence
A Goal Without A Plan is Just A Wish
It is the wish for many people to remain in their own homes forever and our experience is that very few people wish to leave their homes and enter residential aged care. It can be a massive change in your life at a time when you just want to be surrounded by familiar people, things and places.
In fact, research has shown that 70% of people express a wish to die at home, but in Australia only 1 in 7 actually do so. This gives Australia one of the lowest rates of being able to die at home in the OECD countries (you can read the very interesting Grattan Institute ‘Dying Well’ report HERE)
In My Place SA can help you develop a plan to turn your wish into a goal. We know that there are steps that can be taken early to keep you at home as long as possible, and hopefully ‘forever’.
Our individualised plans can look at your whole life and lifestyle, and put together strategies on everything from preventative health, use of technology, aides and equipment, home modifications, finances, mental well-being, community and more.
And if you think you may need in home care services in the near future, we can help you plan for that as well.
