Our Carers and Disability Services team provide short term supports when most needed, which makes a difference in people’s lives.
Support for Older People
Providing short term support for older people
There are times when circumstances change and there is a need for some time limited, or situational support to assist you to maintain living at home. This may be the result of health decline, injury or other circumstances that reduce your functional capacity.
Support for Carers
Providing short-term, flexible support to carers
Caring for someone can be a rewarding experience, but sometimes carers need looking after too. We recognise that for care relationships to be maintained both the carer and the person receiving care should have access to services suitable to their needs.
Interchange
Brightening lives for children and young people with disability
UMFC’s Interchange program provides a range of respite, social and recreational opportunities to children and young people with disability, their carers and families. Our Interchange staff work directly with individuals, their families and carers to build strong community connections and support options.
