Community Care Guide
The Community Care Guide is a booklet that lists a number of services available throughout the Blue Mountains that can assist the Frail Aged, Disabled and their Carers to live more independently.
The Community Care Guide has been recently updated, with the November 2008 edition replacing the 2006 edition.
Services in this booklet include Meals on Wheels, Respite Care and Home Help.
The booklet can be downloaded at right, and is also available from Council's Customer Service Centres, library branches, local GPs, medical centres, and chemists free of charge.
Alternatively contact Prue Hardgrove, Council's Aged and Disabilty Services Officer on (02) 4780 5546.
For those with a vision impairment an audio cassette version of this booklet is also available from the Katoomba Neighbourhood Centre on (02) 4782 1117.
If you do receive a service, you can stop receiving this service if you wish to or if your circumstances change.
All information given to a service regarding your circumstances remains confidential.
If you have an issue regarding paying a fee for a service this can be discussed with the service provider, and an agreement between yourself and the service will be arranged.
