Right Care, Right Time, Right Place,
Right Workforce
HealthAccess Home Care is a social enterprise of the Healthy Communities Foundation Australia. Our virtual care solutions work with primary health networks, hospitals, community services, NGOs and other organisations to support improved access to low acuity care in people’s homes.
​
HealthAccess Home Care is designed around the needs of people in their homes - whether that is a residential home, group home or aged care facility.
We tailor solutions to the unique needs of our customers to ensure that the type and scope of care is aligned to the needs of our consumers. That could be a fully virtual direct to consumer after-hours GP services, a hybrid GP/Nurse Practitioner service delivered on-site and virtually in a residential aged care facility or a group home.
​
Services delivered by HealthAccess Home Care differ from those delivered by HealthAccess Virtual Care. Home Care services are delivered directly to consumers weigh funding support from a PHN, NGO or other agency. Virtual Care services are delivered to an institution which retains the primary therapeutic relationship with the customer and HealthAccess supports that relationship.
