Clinical Care Assessment, Management and Monitoring

At Proveda, our experienced Clinical Care Team are here to ensure you receive the care you need, in the comfort of your own home.

A Clinical Care Assessment is carried out in your home and it can be a good opportunity to evaluate yours, or your loved ones current clinical needs. Whether it be wound care, medication management, reducing the risk of falls or a number of other services, the team will visit you in home for your appointment, which may have otherwise required multiple visits to the GP.

The team are highly trained and experienced and while they are able to provide the care you need at home, they will also be able to refer you to the GP or hospital if you require further treatment, offering you peace of mind and reassurance.

A clinical assessment is done in consultation with you or a family member, and we take all the appropriate steps to adequately assess how to keep you (or a loved one) safe, in the place they call home. Our team will also introduce proactive strategies to help minimise risk and prevent clinical deterioration.

Whether you already have access to a Support at Home or not, you can be assured that as a trusted partner, we’ll have your best interests at heart.  It’s like having another trained pair of eyes available for any given situation, and we find that working with the family is very beneficial when conducting any of the clinical assessments.

What We Do

As with every other service we provide, Proveda will always put you at the centre of everything we do.

Our organisation not only provides services and supports for aged care customers, but it also assists customers with complex health care needs through its social work program. A GP referral is required to access the program, which provides more complex and specialist assistance for many people and families experiencing various ageing, psychological or physical conditions.

Providing clinical care services is an extension of our care management, as it relates to an older person’s physical or cognitive function, capacity, condition and mental health, and is a crucial extra service we provide.

Information gleaned from a clinical assessment helps inform decisions around required supports, which in turn, helps the Care Circle teams provide the services needed to assist in maintaining independent living at home. Adequate planning and preparation for a safe home living environment is essential and clinical care reviews can help with forward planning.

The Types of Services Available to You Include:

Clinical Care Assessment
Psychogeriatric Assessment Scale/Cognitive Decline
Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS)
Continence Assessment
Falls Risk Assessment (FRAT)
Wound Assessment
Medical Management and Support
Clinical Monitoring and Follow-Up

Why Choose Proveda?

At Proveda our approach is to not only help you find the service you need, but to also look at your overall wellbeing, and how we can use our wider circle of support services to provide more holistic care for you.

After thirty years as an independent, not-for-profit organisation, helping more than 15,000 people successfully navigate the health and community care systems, we are proud to be able to add clinical care to our service offering. This service reinforces our holistic approach to care and provides more support to our customers and their families.

Our expertise spans the community sector from aged care to disability and mental health.
