Your local Home Care team in Melbourne is one of a kind

Southern Cross Care’s small and dedicated Home Care team in Victoria is delivering not only quality care but also huge benefits for clients every day.

 Home Care Manager Victoria, Janet Sung said her team is passionate about providing the best care.

 “As a smaller team, we are able to get to know the clients and their family very well and are able to build meaningful and long-lasting relationships,” Janet said. 

“We understand their unique needs and are able to work with other parties and vendors to provide the best holistic care for our clients.” 

“We genuinely care for our clients’ wellbeing and assist them to live the version of lives they want.” 

The team also has courage to make changes and improvements that will benefit clients, not being fazed by obstacles and challenges, because they care for clients like they would their own grandparents.

Janet said there are several key factors that set the team apart from other providers. 

The first is their responsiveness to clients and family members - clients feel supported and listened to because the Home Care team addresses their concerns and requests in a timely manner. 

Staff are also well qualified, with ongoing training and education for carers to encourage career development and enhance their ability to respond to changes in clients’ health or circumstances. 

This training leads to better care as staff can identify clients’ changing needs early on and adapt their care accordingly. 

The team focuses on Home Care Packages, so also has extensive knowledge of the services included and excluded, as well as how to achieve the best holistic care for clients with the funding they have available.

 “We are able to provide accurate information to the clients on what can be covered under the packages. This saves time on going back and forth,” Janet explained. 

“We also have a great relationship with our external providers such as Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists.” 

Based in the St Thomas Community Retirement Village in Forest Hill, our Home Care team is easily accessible and always available to offer assistance for clients.
