Overview

Independent support services in Melbourne and remote across Australia. Empathicare Supports specialises in care for people with invisible disabilities including psychosocial disability and chronic illness. At Empathicare Supports, we know what it's like to have limited spoons to work with. Let us ease the load so you can save those spoons for other things and improve your quality of life. Advocacy and care coordination We know how stressful, confusing, and exhausting it can be to deal with systems and services that make you jump through hoops. Let us handle the phone calls you've been dreading, the emails you don't know how to start, or the paperwork you just can't face. We want to help you get the support you need. Empathicare Supports can help you communicate with government and other organisations (e.g., NDIS, Centrelink, Housing), while working with you, your healthcare supports, and other members of your care team to ensure consistency and best quality outcomes. We can coordinate your services and supports for you so that you can save your energy and brain-space for other things. Peer support, support work, and advice We can provide emotional and practical support to help you stay on track and work through that pesky to-do list. We can help you to improve your skill in managing your condition/s and your understanding of the services available to you, especially when dealing with the NDIS. Empathicare Supports will provide you with help from someone with lived, learned, and professional experience in the areas of mental illness, disability, and chronic illness. We know what it's like to live with invisible conditions and we have extensive professional experience in managing disability and NDIS-related matters, so we can provide support from both a personal and professional perspective. Empathicare Supports acknowledges the traditional owners of the lands we work on and would like to pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging.
