Our story

Our Story

When we think about how we’d like to live when we’re older, we’d all like to feel respected, understood and heard. This sounds simple enough, but it’s a point that’s often overlooked or missed when it comes to aged care. That’s where Aged Care Placement Services comes in. We answer the questions that come with finding the right home or service for your needs and preferences, no matter what they are. And we’ve been doing this since 2012, when our founder, Mary Baumann, decided to do something about the lack of support she saw in the industry. She empathised with the bewildered and stressed children, siblings and elderly acquaintances who tried – and often failed – to make sense of a complicated system. And she was frustrated with the misplacement’s in unsuitable residential aged care homes that often came as a result.

With Aged Care Placement Services, complex processes become easy. We’ll provide useful information, advice and solutions that are tailored to you. You’ll feel heard and understood while you receive the services and care that you deserve. Because we believe in the power of empathy and compassion, especially when it comes to caring for those who’ve cared for us.

Aged Care: A Snapshot

Home Care

Home Care

A home is more than rooms of furniture – it’s made of memories and feelings, too. If you’re eligible for the Commonwealth Community Support Program or a Home Care Package, we can help you navigate My Aged Care so you can stay in your home, you love.
Retirement Living

Retirement Living

Purpose-built retirement communities are a wonderful way to meet new people and stay social. If you’re interested in downsizing your home, staying independent, and having fun with like-minded friends, a retirement community may be great for you.

If you find that it’s just too hard to live independently, residential aged care can be the solution you’re looking for. The right residence can ensure your individual needs are met through lifestyle, clinical, accommodation and personal support.
