The Restorative Care Pathway

The Restorative Care Pathway
Published Summary

Looking for palliative care at home? Leora provides compassionate in-home aged care and nursing support and works alongside families and healthcare teams.

The Restorative Care Pathway is a short-term pathway under the Australian Government’s Support at Home program.

It provides intensive allied health and nursing support to help eligible older people maintain or regain function and reduce or prevent further decline. An approved episode may last for up to 16 weeks.

Eligibility is determined through an aged care assessment. Once approved, you will work with your provider to set goals and develop a plan for your restorative care services.
