CARE SERVICES

Peace of mind in a caring and supportive community

Whilst Ocean Gardens is a Retirement village at its heart, we also provide high quality support to our residents so they can keep living at the village for as long as possible.

We offer a comprehensive range of care support services. Whilst the prospect of extra support is appealing, we understand that the process of engaging care services can be overwhelming. Our experienced team is here to help navigate you through your aged care journey.

The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission has approved Ocean Gardens to be a registered home care provider. This means we can provide you with The Support at Home Program, delivered by our Ocean Gardens Home Care staff. We also provide a variety of self-funded home care services tailored to your specific needs on a ‘fee for service’ basis.

We believe our 24-hour care service and emergency call system is unique to Perth because we have a care staff member onsite 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The system is monitored onsite by our own Home Care Team. Simply activate the pendant when you require assistance and a Care Support Worker will
be by your side in minutes.

For more information on our Home Care Support Services give us a call on 9285 3050.

Services, your way

There might come a day when you find that some activities have become harder than they used to. But why should anything else have to change? At Ocean Gardens, you can simply select the support you need and then keep on living life the way you choose.

Our home care services provide you with the flexibility to choose from a variety of services. Have a face-to-face chat with our Home Care Team Team who will make it simple and easy to create your tailored support plan.

Our Housekeeping Team can help with a range of tasks from cleaning out the fridge, the pantry or the linen cupboard, through to regular jobs like the bathroom, toilet, floors and dusting. Our commercial laundry can take care of those large and other bulky personal items like blankets, doonas, bed sheets and towels.

Showering and grooming
