Residential Aged Care
Residential aged care refers to specialized housing and support services for older adults who can no longer live independently. These facilities, often called nursing homes or care homes, provide accommodation, medical care, assistance with daily activities like bathing and eating, and social opportunities. The goal is to ensure residents receive appropriate health and personal care in a safe, comfortable environment, promoting quality of life. Access is usually coordinated through government or private arrangements, tailored to individual needs to support aging with dignity and respect.
