Gardening and house maintenance

"Gardening and house maintenance"

About: Alpine@Home

(as a service user),

When I applied for aged care assistance it was predominantly for gardening and house maintenance but these were not available in my area unfortunately.

I currently receive fortnightly 60-90 minutes house cleaning, depending upon availability of staff, from Alpine Health. This is a great help as both my husband and I are finding it increasingly more difficult to do the heavier jobs in and around the house. We are still concerned about keeping the grass and garden trimmed as we live in a fire risk area.

Hi Bloss,

Thank you for getting touch. The garden and house maintenance are assessed on an as needs basis please contact our intake and assessment team on 5751 9361 if you would like to discuss your eligibility or service availability.

I am glad that the domestic assistance you receive is helpful and hope that we can return you to your full allocation of service in the near future as we have recently employed additional staff.

Kind regards,
Emma Ghys
