SUPPORTING THE EVERYDAY CARERS
Working to improve family carers' quality of life and support their wellbeing for outstanding unpaid contributions. They are our community's unsung heroes, the everyday carers, who provide round-the-clock care and support to seniors and/or people living with disability, mental conditions, chronic conditions, terminal illness.
We understand that providing care is not an easy task and can be challenging. When caring for a family member or friend with additional care needs, they too need the care of others. As a working partner of Carer Gateway Initiative, we offer various services to support carers, including free services: counselling, skill training, peer support groups, and much more online, via telephone or in-person.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
Carers can range from all shapes and sizes, some as young as eight to people well into their nineties. It is a free government service to support carers to reduce emotional and physical strain and improve overall health and wellbeing. Hence, anyone caring for someone close is welcome to access this support service.
DID YOU KNOW?
You may be eligible for a range of practical supports like care planning, respite care and transport to help you in your caring role.
Being part of a carer support group can reduce depression, anxiety or distress.
It helps to chat in your language and be able to truly understand your challenges and offer support.
