So my name's Edwina and this is Lacey and we are from Right at Home Geelong, which you may or may not have heard of.
We're in-home care service providers and Lacey actually went to primary school with Delta.
Yeah.
Yep, absolutely.
Along with someone else that's in the audience.
So that's sort of our connection.
And then over probably about the last 12 months, we've been working with Burke Britain just to educate and supply their clients with information around aged care services that are at home.
So essentially our presentation is mostly in regards to services provided in the home.
So that pre-stage before you're looking at sort of long-term care facilities.
Well, there's us.
So Edwina and I are both registered nurses.
We've been nursing for close to 25 years and we have both met on when we started our graduate year up at St Vincent's in Melbourne.
So we have had our careers in nursing and sort of went all our different ways at times and had some personal experience that sort of opened our eyes to the need for the community in terms of aged care.
So it was something that we started talking about and then we found Right at Home and Right at Home is a franchise network, so it's all across Australia.
Has anyone seen our ads on TV? Yep, some people.
So once you say yes, then you might sort of pick up on some of the ads.
So we are based here in Geelong, which is something that is important I think when you're looking for a provider of some aged care supports.
But what we're going to do tonight is sort of try and actually start from the beginning.
So we're going to actually explain to you about MyAgeCare and how it works, about accessing services, support at home itself, which is the program and funding that's available through the government, and who we are at Right at Home.
