Their goal is to enable people to live life to the fullest regardless of age.

They have extensive Home Care Packages, Commonwealth Home Support Programs and Private Services that people can choose from, depending on their needs. Their highly trained staff will take time to listen and respect their client’s preferences on how they wish to go about achieving life improvements and better health, such as a personal fitness journey.

Wellness Program

The BallyCara Wellness Program gives emphasis on the importance of health, wellness, and happiness. The aim is to provide a better understanding of the changing relationship between health and age. The program includes a series of activities that promote optimal physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

 

JMac’s Role

Being such a large facility, the waste management needs of BallyCara are an important element of contributing to the health and well-being of the village’s environment. JMac brings their a-game with regular bins cleans – leaving them squeaky clean and deoderised.
