Community Services

The purpose of ECH Community Services is to support older people living in their own home to enable them to continue doing so for as long as possible. This may be by providing services to help at home, such as cleaning or personal care, or through physical therapy, exercise or socialisation at one of our centres. ECH services are provided within our Enhancing Independence model of services which aims to build on strengths and assist clients to remain independent.

A variety of situations can threaten independence and as each person’s circumstances are unique, services are tailored to personal preferences and needs.

Through our four community service sites, four therapy service centres and five day programs, we currently provide a service to thousands of older South Australians and are constantly seeking to increase or enhance our programs to respond to community need.
