SUMMARY:BA5 Hosted by Home Support North Charitable Trust
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an engaging Business After 5 hosted by Home Support North Charitable Trust\, where you’ll get to step behind the scenes of a vital local organisation providing home-based care services throughout Northland. \nHome Support North is Northland’s largest provider of in-home care and support services. Their team of support workers provide essential services to make daily life easier\, including personal care\, meal preparation\, and housekeeping for loved ones\, reducing the burden on family. \n\nCome along for the usual good chats\, drinks and nibbles\, but also hear about how our ageing population will significantly increase both demand and complexity of at‑home care services\, in turn putting pressure on family members. Discover the essential services Home Support North provides in our community\, including what support is government-funded and how relationships often evolve from simple household help into ongoing care for loved ones. You’ll also takeaway some practical tips and information to share with your team and understand the possible impacts on your staff if they suddenly become carers. \nVenue Update | Please note the venue for this event is now at WOTSO\, 31 Hannah Street\, Whangārei.
