Why In Home Care
Why Choose In Home Care
Choosing in home care allows you to maintain your confidence and independence at home. You can receive the level of care and support you need without the stress of a big move.

What are in home care services?
In home care refers to a range of services, the common theme of which is that they are all provided within the comfort of your own home, meaning you don’t need to move house or go to a residential facility to receive the care you deserve.
What help is provided with an in home care package?
An in home care package can include any combination of the different services we offer, tailored to your needs. Contact us to find out more about how our different services compliment each other.
Can I combine private and government-funded care services?
Yes, many people choose to combine both types of care to create a more comprehensive support plan. Privately funded care can fill in the gaps when government subsidies don’t cover the services that you would like.
How do I get started with government-funded home care?
The first step is to have your needs assessed by a Needs Assessment Services Co-ordination Agency on behalf of Health NZ (Te Whata Ora) to see if you are eligible for home support services. You can also contact us and we can help explain the process.
What is the difference between private vs government-funded home care?
Private home care means that you pay for the services yourself. The benefits of this mean that your care can start immediately, and you have complete flexibility to choose the services and type of caregivers you would like to come into your home. Government-funded care provides funding support based on your eligibility criteria.
