JUST like the different movie genres there are different types of care - main, support, daily, long distance, in your home, in their home or in an aged care home.   

Sometimes a tragedy, often comical and always hard work.  Here to enhance the lives of our aged loved ones.  

The Story is your aged loved one’s story, to be heard and shared.   

The Script is the care you provide. Reviewed often It changes when needed. 

The Star is You - the main carer.  It's simple - without you this isn't going to work. There is always one main carer.   

The Support actors are needed. This isn't a one person show.  Whether it is other family members, outsourced services or products. Trusting the supports and let the understudy have a go too!   

The Rider is a list of "demands" the star has.  This is not negotiable.  Things you need to care for yourself so you can keep on caring for your aged loved ones.  Your rider, you decide and then make it happen.  

The Camera is a reminder to take those pictures, shoot those videos and create the memories that will be with you forever.   

The Director is there to give advice and share ways to make it easier for you. Find a support network. Someone to listen.   

The Critics are always watching. Just like any movie, you can love it or hate - it is individual opinions, beliefs and emotions that fuels the criticism.    

The Award Show is finding things to be grateful for and then nominating them for “the wins”.   

Just like the movie that touches our heart and engages all our emotions our caring journey will do the same. 

However, a word of caution – just how we have our own interpretations of movies we have our own interpretations of the caring journey.  

Talk about it, share your thoughts and listen to others.   

You Matter to me!
