Australia’s first General, Harry Chauvel, was born at Tabulam, near Lismore and was involved in the Boer War, WWI and WWII. He won particular praise for his fighting skill at Gallipoli and in the Middle East in WWI. His fighting skills, dedication and focus on his people are legendary. As a soldier, Chauvel’s courage and calmness were matched by his humanity which was extended to the enemy as well as his own men. He was always well forward in battle; in the field he lived simply, sleeping in his greatcoat on the sand when his force was on the move. Loyalty was one of his chief characteristics. We understand that people feel the most comfortable and relaxed at home and families like to know their loved ones are safe and happy. RSL LifeCare provides the services that ensure your choice to live at home can be fulfilled. You may need a hand at home, be returning home from hospital, or require support to get out and about. We are available 24 hours, seven days a week. All members of the LifeCare @ Home team are motivated people with a ‘can-do’ attitude, who bring energy, enthusiasm and compassion to the people they serve every day. Team members participate in a detailed recruitment process which includes background checks, reference checks and ongoing supervision to ensure the highest quality team of staff are on hand to deliver quality care. Carer consistency is also a service which LifeCare @ Home clients enjoy. This means that clients and their family members have the opportunity to become familiar and comfortable with their carer rather than experience the confusion of new faces and names. Just like family, we tackle the big things and remember the little things that are important to you.
