Question 1

How do I know my loved one is safe with a Respect carer?

Accepted Answer

Our carers are screened through background checks and provided references. We hire people committed to the health, well-being and safety of those who need it most.Before we hire a carer, we test them for empathy. Being empathetic to a person’s needs ensures a compatible fit for compassionate assistance. A carer’s main priority is their client’s health and safety. There is great satisfaction in providing necessary services to those who cannot get around as they used to.Becoming a Respect carer is a noble profession and our name stands on our customers’ satisfaction. That’s why we check in frequently to make sure quality care is provided at all times. To speak to an Aged Care Representative and learn more, contact us. We look forward to assisting your needs.

Question 2

Besides providing a helping hand, what else can I get out of having support at home?

Accepted Answer

Most likely, you think of hiring a carer to take care of an individual’s health needs. But Respect care doesn’t stop there. Our carers treat people holistically—mind, body and spirit.Aside from health and safety needs, care recipients benefit from companionship and one-on-one conversation. Having someone to talk with is so important as we age. We can air our feelings, talk about our likes and dislikes—even share recipes or run off about the latest footy match. In time, a carer becomes an extension of the family.Here’s a real plus: the routine of having a friendly face show up every day is an absolute feel good. This is an especially important factor in combating depression. Medical issues, losses in life and loneliness are all catalysts for depression in people as they age. A carer not only listens to concerns, but sets up activities that can stimulate the mind and body, which in turn elevates mood. In short, a busy day is a purpose-filled day!Not surprisingly, the relationship between a carer and the person who is being looked after has a significant, positive impact on both. The time they spend with each other may be more than they spend with anyone else. An empathetic ear and sense of humour go a long way in developing trust and camaraderie. It’s a downright win-win.For people diagnosed with dementia, the psychological benefits of having a carer are quite remarkable. In fact, according to Alz.org, having support for people with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can improve quality of life. Our Respect carers have learned techniques and activities to keep people in the early stages of memory loss actively engaged.

If you think being a carer is right for you, apply on our Careers page.Some things to consider prior to applying:Do you frequently put other people’s needs before your own? As a personal carer, people depend on you. To best serve our care recipients, being on site, on time is a requirement. At times, you may be required to be flexible with your assigned schedule.Do you live a healthy lifestyle? Chances are, if you care for your own health, you care about the health of others. Our team is dedicated to providing healthcare services, some of which may require strength and agility. Please consider this before applying as a carer.Are you considered a patient person? Like anyone, our care recipients have good days and not-so-good days. Feeling overly tired or unwell can affect one’s mood, thereby requiring patience on the carer’s part. Our goal is to provide a safe, comforting service, so maintaining a sense of calm and caring attitude is essential.Being a carer is a meaningful profession that offers many professional and personal rewards. Those in healthcare are widely respected in the communities they live in. There are professional networking associations you may want to join to foster camaraderie and support for your career. With Respect, you’ll develop friendships, get paid a fair wage and gain pride in your abilities.
