More than care: how Aunty Grace is redefining support at home

FOR older Australians navigating the complexities of home care, finding the right support can be overwhelming, but one provider is making it easier – and more personal.

Aunty Grace, a care organisation with heart, is doing things differently by focusing on relationships, reliability, and real community.

At the centre of the Aunty Grace approach are Local Care Partners – real people across Greater Geelong, the Bellarine, and surrounds who take the time to get to know clients.

They’re not just there to manage rosters or make referrals; they’re a consistent presence that clients can trust and who understands their needs.

Whether it’s building a tailored care plan together, navigating care options or simply checking in, these Care Partners make the experience feel more like family.

This focus on connection doesn’t stop at individual care. Aunty Grace has built a community around its clients. Earlier this year, the team hosted an Aunty Grace get-together.

This was a lively event with lunch, activities, and great company. The turnout was a powerful reminder that people want more than just care – they want to belong.

That’s just the beginning. Aunty Grace takes care management seriously – and personally.

Clients receive not only regular check-ins, but the ongoing support of a dedicated team. Behind every client is a group of people working to ensure they are well looked after and genuinely supported to continue living independently at home.

From coordinating schedules to responding in moments of need, the structure is there to support people when they need it most.

Care partners work proactively, ensuring clients are well supported both day-to-day and during life’s more challenging turns.

As people age, health can change quickly. A fall, a hospital stay, or the early signs of dementia can reshape what support looks like. That’s when people really feel the Aunty Grace difference.

A team of qualified nurses and paramedics regularly review client files, health histories, and emerging needs – ensuring that the right supports are in place.

Whether it’s restorative care to get you back on your feet or tailored support through a dementia diagnosis, the team is ready to walk beside every client on their unique journey.

In a crowded space, Aunty Grace stands out by putting people first. As Australia prepares to roll out the new Support at Home program, Aunty Grace has you covered.

The Support at Home program is set to tighten how unspent funds are handled, which means that service reliability matters more than ever.

If funding goes unused, it may be lost each quarter. Aunty Grace ensures that care plans are delivered on time and that every dollar works harder for clients – without compromise.

With care that’s co-ordinated, compassionate, and consistent, they’re not just delivering services they’re dedicated to building something more.

Because no one knows you like your Aunty Grace.
