As such, Active at Home is offered as a cost-effective solution to home care providers, enabling them to make a real difference to the health and wellbeing of their ageing clients, while also meeting Government requirements to deliver (and report on) wellness and reablement services.
Active at Home is an evidence-based program with measured outcomes. It is developed in association with the Australian Government and strongly aligned with the aims of national aged care reforms. A trial of the program in 2017 proved it made a significant difference (up to 20%) to clients’ physical performance – the sort of improvement which can mean the difference between older people remaining physically independent and needing more care.
