When choosing an aged care facility, it's easy to get caught up in reviews or other perople's opinion—however are they actually reliable? 🤔 Here are some things to consider: 👉 Check the source, as some may be paid for. 👉 Subjectivity: Reviews can reflect personal opinions, sometimes driven by unrealistic expectations or even negative bias from competitors. 👉 Firsthand Feedback: What do current and past residents (and their families) say? Just because it is right for their care needs does not mean it will be right for you care needs. 👉 Remember the person showing you around the home is a salesperson and may not be able to deliver on their promises. At Well Placed Care, we help you navigate reviews and feedback, ensuring you make a well-informed decision for your loved one. #Wellplacedcare #ChoosingAgedCare #InformedDecisions #CareThatMatters #AgedCareAdvice #ReliableReviews #PersonalisedCare #AgedCareSupport #NavigateAgedCare #TrustworthyGuidance #WellPlacedCare

If you notice any of these signs, seeking medical advice is important. Early diagnosis can lead to better care and support. We’re here to help you navigate this journey with care and understanding. #Wellplacedcare #DementiaAwareness #EarlySignsOfDementia #SupportForCaregivers #DementiaCare #CognitiveHealth #AgedCareSupport #MemoryLossSigns #LivingWithDementia #DementiaInAgedCare #BetterCareBetterLives

Falls are the leading cause of injury in older Australians, with 1 in 3 people over 65 experiencing a fall each year. These incidents can lead to serious health complications, but many falls are preventable with the right measures in place. Consider installing grab bars, using non-slip mats, and ensuring adequate lighting to make the home environment safer. Small changes can make a big difference in reducing fall risks.

Social isolation is a silent struggle that affects 1 in 4 Australians over the age of 75, leading to loneliness and declining mental health. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

These seemingly small gestures have the power to brighten someone’s day and significantly improve their quality of life. At Well Placed Care, we understand the profound impact that social connections have on overall wellbeing. That’s why we’re committed to helping your loved ones stay connected and engaged with the world around them.
