Introduction:Our purpose is to enrich the lives of people living independently in their own homes through connection to services and community.
About ECHO
ECHO Community Services is a registered charity providing care to the elderly and people living with disability to help them live in their own home with dignity while still maintaining their independence.
We provide in-home services 7 days per week for Home Care Package and NDIS clients and 5 days per week for CHSP.
Our goal is to provide services at the same time, on the same day and with the same support worker which means that you know the person who is coming and the time they will arrive. Having the same support worker providing services, in particular, medication prompts and personal care, maintains the person’s dignity and well-being. You know and can trust the person attending. There is continuity of care for people who receive our services.
