Help with aged care homes

Common question


Question:	My aunt is living at home, but only managing because I help her a lot. I have my elderly mother and my own family to care for as well and am finding it increasingly difficult to cope. Is there someone I can talk to about what I can do?
Answer:	You might like to talk to a carer counselling service to work through your concerns and offer some options. The Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centre - 1800 052 222 (free call) during business hours or, for emergency respite support outside standard business hours, call 1800 059 059 (free call) - can arrange this service for you.
