What<\/span> is the care<\/span>
\nfinders service?<\/span><\/h2>\n
Care finders assist older adults who may be isolated, have language or literacy barriers, or without family support to access government services. This program is designed for people who may not be able to connect with government services on their own.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Our experienced team guides you every step of the way; whether you’re applying for services, attending assessments, or understanding your options. We’re here to make aged care navigation simple and stress-free.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This service is funded by the Western Australia Primary Health Alliance (WAPHA).<\/div>\n

\n How does the service work? <\/strong>\n \n\n<\/svg>\n <\/h3>\n
\n
If someone needs help accessing health and aged care support services in Perth, a local organisation, like Umbrella, can connect them with a dedicated support person from our care finder team. The team member will usually meet with the person face-to-face, either in their home or at another location of their choice across the Perth metro area, including Belmont, Mandurah, and the Peel region.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
During the meeting, the care finder team member will ask respectful, guided questions to understand your unique circumstances. This personalised support is especially valuable for older people from CaLD backgrounds who may benefit from culturally appropriate aged care in Perth.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The care finder team is also available to run outreach sessions for specific language, cultural or community groups. If you are interested hosting the care finder team, please get in touch by emailing cfs@umbrellacommunitycare.com.au or through the contact portal below.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
