Senior Care Services

Aquamarine Personalised Home Care is the perfect solution for seniors who aren’t ready to leave the familiarity and comforts of home for an institutional setting when they have an illness or chronic medical condition.

We understand how important it is for people to be surrounded by the things that they love – neighbours, friends, family photos, a favourite chair – and how it can have a positive impact on mental health and physical wellbeing.

Receiving compassionate, one-on-one care – be it a few hours a day or 24/7 live-in care – enables people to remain in their own homes and connected to the community they’ve grown to love. Our highly qualified and trained caregivers are ready to help with a variety of daily activities, including:

Testimonials

I was at Gold Coast University Hospital on Wednesday morning with my Mother for an appointment.

I witnessed one of your staff who was looking after a client called Nadia.

I didn’t catch the staff members name but just wanted to let you know she did such a beautiful job of looking after her client. Her client was quite obviously very anxious and your staff member calmed her down and distracted her and did such a lovely caring job.

We often hear complaints with regard to providing services but its not often that people take the time to commend great work and your carer definitely deserves the compliment.

Thanking you

Dear Aquamarine Care,

I thank you for Anita and her service since I started services with you. 

I request that I may be able to use her next year please; after I complete my course since she helps me do what I need for myself.

Your service is exemplary and very good. You allow me to do for myself what I cannot do on my own. 

I wish to continue services with you in the future.

Yours Faithfully,

“Aquamarine has been absolutely fantastic. I am really thankful for all the support I have received as it really, really helped me.”

As a side note, I’ve not worked with another provider so far who has been able to be as flexible as Aquamarine. I know the challenges with organising rosters so I wanted you to know how appreciative I am that you’ve been able to accommodate all of these changes to support Lee.

Owen’s world is so much brighter with Laura’s support. I’m so grateful you matched us. He glows after she’s been.

Aquamarine workers have been truly brilliant and I have no doubt that both Robyn and Max are ever so grateful and would not have made it this far without the supports provided.

Thank you for the quick reply.

I just want to say thank you for sending Sandra to me every Tuesday, 11 am.
She is an absolute gem. I have had a different worker each time for ages and was so tired of having to start all over each time. We have a very big house and Sandra and I have worked out a process that will see our home gleaming within 6 weeks. Then it's going to be just a matter of methodical weekly maintenance. Beds every 2nd week. Thank you so much for being such a great person and please tell her that we think she is the ants pants!

Hi Gemma,

I took a call from Carer Megan Logan. Aquamarine have been supporting her and her Dad – Palliative Care.

She called to say that the care she has received from Aquamarine Personalised Home Care has been outstanding and so thoughtful and communicate so well with her whilst she has been caring for her terminally ill Father.

Megan stated that Aquamarine (SW Mary Anne) and the staff at CRCC have made her Palliative Care journey empowering and that she has become a stronger person because of the support. She feels she can trust and have the confidence to the end of her Dads time.  J

I just wanted to send a note to compliment your team on the prompt and caring service last weekend. We needed help for Dad at the last minute when Mum was admitted to hospital after a fall. Your office team arranged a carer to be there within the hour and kept dad safe for the next 27 hours until we could arrive from Victoria. We don’t know what we would have done without you. Thank you for the wonderful service, great work.

I will no longer be a Support Coordinator after this week and just wanted to say that Aquamarine is absolutely the best Provider in the area.

Full marks for fantastic communication and ticking all boxes related to customer service.

Don’t change as you are a value to the community!

A huge thank you to all the team in the office. 

You all work so hard behind the scenes putting all the pieces of the puzzle together to make our day run as smoothly as possible, listen to our every whim and show us compassion and support when things at work or home are not so good. 
 
Hope you and your families all have a wonderful Christmas and a healthy, happy, safe New year.
 
Thank you for always being there, it is very much appreciated.

Dear Billie,

 I will be providing feedback to my team and Attendant Care team about the service you have provided for this family. I have been at iCare for nearly 5 years and never experienced such professionalism, willingness and positive feedback re staff in the home than I have in the past week with Aquamarine. The family have had a positive experience with the end of life care for our client at home. Please pass this feedback on to the care staff that assisted our client and his family and your manager.

Warm regards

Rebecca
