Self-funded personalised care is booming and Silverchain has teamed with One to Another to join the party.
In-home care provider Silverchain Private Care and Victoria’s retired living operator One to Another have joined forces to provide services to three retired living villages in Melbourne’s elite bayside suburbs of Brighton and Sandringham.
Silverchain Private Care’s director Dot Fuller said the new partnership is meeting the growing needs of Victorians who seek to self-fund personalised care in the comfort of their own homes.
“This agreement offers residents the opportunity to remain at home longer by accessing essential in-home support, helping them stay safe and well, and avoiding the need to move into residential aged care,” said Ms Fuller.
“Silverchain Private Care’s comprehensive suite of health and aged care services offers a complete solution for those seeking to self-fund care at home to support their health, happiness and wellbeing.”
Silverchain Private Care uses a self-funded model of care that offers flexibility and choice, with no wait lists, tests or government assessments. This enables fast access to immediate, short-term or ongoing care.
Ms Fuller said Silverchain’s attentive clinical care managers worked closely with clients to plan and coordinate a complete care program tailored to their specific needs, lifestyle, preferences and goals.
“Whether it is assistance with daily activities such as showering and cooking or more specialised nursing care, our integrated approach ensures residents can stay, feel and live well at home, regardless of age or stage of life,” Ms Fuller said.
“Our integrated approach is made possible by a dedicated team of professionals that include personal carers, registered nurses and allied health professionals.”
One to Another’s village manager Sandra Doolan said Silverchain “perfectly complements” the needs of its residents.
“We know that through this new partnership our residents will continue to be cared for in the manner they are accustomed to,” Ms Doolan said.
“Silverchain’s team brings a wealth of experience and knowledge. The level of interaction with the residents’ general practitioners is also a big plus.
“Having Silverchain Private Care’s dedicated team as our preferred partner ensures that our residents’ right to be looked after in their own homes for as long as they need care is well and truly supported.”
