Keeping a home clean, tidy and running smoothly becomes harder for many people as they get older, particularly for those managing arthritis, reduced mobility or fatigue from a chronic health condition. Expert Health Services provides domestic assistance services in Double Bay to help older residents maintain a safe and comfortable home without the physical strain of doing it all alone.
Our domestic assistance services in Double Bay can be arranged as a standalone support or combined with personal care, nursing or allied health as part of a broader home care package funded through the Home Nursing ServicesSupport at Home Program.
What Our Domestic Assistance Services Double Bay Include
Our domestic assistance workers support Double Bay clients with a wide range of household tasks, including.
- General house cleaning, dusting and vacuuming
- Bathroom and kitchen cleaning
- Laundry and ironing
- Changing bed linen
- Grocery shopping and errands
- Meal preparation
- Tidying and organising living spaces
Every client receives a schedule built around what actually matters to them. Some clients want a thorough clean once a fortnight, others prefer shorter, more frequent visits with help around meals and shopping in between.
Who Our Domestic Assistance Services in Double Bay Are For
Domestic assistance is suited to older Double Bay residents who are managing independently with daily personal tasks but find household chores physically demanding or unsafe, such as climbing to reach high shelves, carrying heavy shopping bags, or standing for long periods to cook and clean. It is also commonly used by clients recovering from a hospital stay or surgery who need short term extra help while they regain strength, and by those living with a chronic condition that makes regular housework difficult to sustain.
If you are unsure whether domestic assistance is the right fit or whether a broader care plan would suit you better, our team can talk through your situation and suggest an appropriate level of support.
Funding Domestic Assistance Services in Double Bay
Support at Home Program
Eligible older Australians can use their funded home care budget under the Support at Home Program to cover domestic assistance visits in Double Bay, alongside other services such as nursing or personal care. An assessment through My Aged Care determines your funding level.
Private and self funded arrangements
Clients who prefer not to wait on an assessment, or who want additional support beyond their funded hours, can book domestic assistance privately. Pricing is transparent, with no lock in contracts.
How to Arrange Domestic Assistance in Double Bay
- Call or send an enquiry to discuss your household needs and preferred visit frequency.
- We confirm your funding pathway, whether through My Aged Care or as a private client.
- A support worker is matched to you based on your needs and the tasks you want help with.
- Regular visits begin, with the same worker returning each time wherever possible so you are not explaining your preferences to someone new every visit.
Why Double Bay Residents Choose Our Domestic Assistance Service
Consistency matters most to our clients. Rather than sending a different worker each visit, we aim to keep the same support worker attending your home so they learn your routines, your home layout and your preferences over time. Our domestic assistance service in Double Bay is also backed by a full clinical team, so if a client’s needs change and nursing or allied health support becomes necessary, that transition happens smoothly under one provider rather than starting again with a new organisation.
We also support residents in the surrounding suburbs of Point Piper, Rose Bay, Edgecliff, Darling Point and Bellevue Hill.
