Assisted Living & Supported Accommodation

Is assisted living or supported accommodation the right step and how do they differ?

Find the right living environment, with the right level of support.

Moving from the family home is a significant step.
With the right guidance, it can be a positive transition that supports your safety, wellbeing and independence.

We help you understand the difference between assisted living and supported accommodation, and explore options that align with your care needs, lifestyle and personal preferences.

From independent retirement communities with services available, to homes where daily care is built into everyday life, we walk beside you to find the place that feels right.

The difference?

Assisted Living means you live independently in your own private unit within a retirement community, with support available when you need it.

From meals and housekeeping to personal care, ideal for those who are mostly independent but want the reassurance of nearby help and a connected community.

Supported Accommodation, on the other hand, is designed for people who need regular assistance to live safely and well.

Care is part of everyday life, with staff on hand to help with personal care, meals, mobility and medication, offering a higher level of support in a genuine home environment.

Some of the most common concerns we can answer for you are;

  • What’s the difference between supported accommodation and aged care?
  • Can we stay together as a couple if care needs are different?
  • What level of care is actually provided, and do the costs increase for extra care ?
  • How do I know if this is the right level of support given my current needs?
  • What happens if care needs change suddenly and additional services are required?
