At a client seminar hosted by their law firm in 2015, a couple saw a presentation from DR Care Solutions on "Planning Ahead: An Aged Care Discussion". The discussion points resonated with them. Two years later, they reached out to DR Care Solutions to solve their problem.
The couple had an 84-year old mother with terminal bone cancer who was living with her 63-year old son who was diagnosed with early onset dementia.
In this scenario:
DR Care Solutions was engaged and within two weeks, DR Care Solutions:
Funding was sourced via a My Aged Care Home Care Package for the mother and NDIS funding for the son, so that both could remain at home with good quality care!
Two years down the track the care is still in place, though the son has been placed into residential aged care due to his advancing dementia.
The son's NDIS carers continue to visit him in his residential care and take him on social outings three days a week.
With her home carer visiting on a regular basis, the mother remains at home and has not had to move into a hospice.
The couple who engaged DR Care Solutions were relieved of the stress of managing care systems and processes to achieve the outcome the family desired.
