​The Short-Term Restorative Care (STRC) Programme is an innovative program that provides early intervention with the aim to reverse and/or slow functional decline and optimise independence.
STRC is delivered through a multi-disciplinary team, case manager, physiotherapy, occupatiional therapy, allied health assistant, dietietics and podiatry. The team works together to build goals that are important to the client to regain independence and autonomy rather than commencing long term care prematurely.
This is provided in a home setting for a period of no longer than 8 weeks. STRC is ideal for people who are:
Goal-orientated and have the desire to slow down or improve to earlier or improved levels of independence.
Not currently receiving any Commonwealth Government aged care services in the form of residential care, home care or any other type of flexible care under the act.
