At Advice Care, our social work services are designed to provide practical guidance, emotional support, advocacy and connection to the right services.

Practical Support for Real-Life Challenges
Social work support can connect with many parts of a participant’s life. A participant may need support with family communication, community access, school concerns, social isolation, emotional wellbeing, tenancy issues, plan review preparation, or understanding what services may help them. Advice Care aims to provide support that is practical and easy to understand.
Before support begins, we aim to understand the participant’s goals, current challenges, strengths, risks, communication needs, family situation and preferred support style. With the participant’s consent, we can work with families, carers, support coordinators, schools, allied health professionals and other relevant services.
We understand that people may feel overwhelmed when dealing with complex systems. Social work support can help participants feel more confident, organised and supported. It can also help identify barriers and practical steps that may improve daily life and participation.
Our goal is to help participants and families feel stronger, safer and more connected. We provide social work support with respect, patience and genuine care, while supporting participant rights, dignity and independence.
