Finally some
good news...
the maximum interest rate that can be charged on any accommodation
bond has been reduced to 8.76% for residents entering care from January
1st 2009 (it was 11.31%) .
The current holiday period is a great opportunity
to spend quality time with your family.
But it can also be when you realise
that more care is needed than is available in the home environment.
Don't
stress any further, talk to us about your loved one's care needs and we can talk
to you about the best care and accommodation options available.

 Patricia,
Noel, Colleen and myself are very grateful of your assistance in placement of
Mrs Jennings in an ideal home and location. Once again, please accept our gratitude
from the family Alan Jennings
(28 Oct 08)
I
am really impressed with Ashley Terrace and am extremely happy with the placement.
I visited my mum today and for the first time she seemed back to her bright self,
good skin, bright eyes, pretty blouse and fresh lipstick!! Mum commented that
the staff are lovely and extremely helpful and 'the food is good'. She has found
a buddy and hopefully this is a turnaround point for her. Thanks again to both
of you for your help. Kind regards.

Many
thanks for making a potentially difficult time a positive experience for all of
us Sue and Steve (8 Jan

Thank
you for all your help. I would not have had a hope all on my own. I hope Brian
settles in well, he should do so. Thanks again,
Mrs Carmel T. (12 Aug 07)
Your
assistance in locating a place for my mum where she lives and then negotiating
with the aged care facility was such a relief for me and very much appreciated.
Also, your advice in relation to the costs when entering low care, as well as
providing referrals to applicable financial advisors, has been invaluable. Thank
you Mrs Rhondda J. (16
