Without Avivo, Rosa and her brother Elio wouldn’t have been able to stay living at home with their elderly father after their mother passed in 2017.

Rosa and Elio have been with Avivo since 2011, but their mother was looking after most of their physical care needs. When she passed away, their future looked quite uncertain.

Avivo helped the family to access the extra funding and support they needed to continue living together in the family home.

Rosa loves shopping and getting her nails done while Elio enjoys playing bingo at the local Italian club. When they go out, their father gets some time to potter in his garden.

Avivo also helps Rosa and Elio with any problems that arise from their multiple medical conditions and arranges for them to be treated by allied health professionals.

Our nurses also provide assistance for their support workers so that they can do their jobs well.
