Welcome to the first 2022 edition of our Aged Care newsletter

We begin our newsletter by discussing why the topic of ageing can sometimes be difficult to talk about with family. There are many options available to guide you and your family through this conversation.

Next, there are different types of accommodation available in retirement villages – not all accommodations, services, and facilities are the same, so it’s important to know what your options are prior to making the move.

The Aged Care system in Australia can be complex. Costly mistakes can be made if you don’t do your research. Here, we provide you with a few ways to avoid these mistakes if you or your loved one is considering Aged Care services.

There comes a time in our lives when we're not as independent around the home as we used to be. There are Home Care services and packages available to assist you to remain in your home that little bit longer.

We love to hear from you, so please feel free to contact us with any questions about our articles in this newsletter on (02) 9899 9369 or email admin@kisplanning.com.au.

Kind regards,

Matthew
