Information for Carers

 

Carers provide unpaid care and support to family members or friends who have a chronic or acute condition, mental illness, disability, or who are of frail age.

Ishar has recognized that providing care, support and love is a carers prime responsibility and that caring for loved ones is very demanding physically and emotionally.

We also recognize that moving to a new country means adjusting to a new life style and very often losing social and family support. In your home country you would have help from friends or family in caring for your loved ones, here in Perth you can ask for help from different agencies and service providers.

If you have been experiencing difficulties coping with your day to day life, discrimination, social isolation, unemployment, poverty, lack of housing, mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem or physical exhaustion do not suffer in silence. Help is available.

In addition to accessing relevant services that are available to assist you with the caring role it is vital that you adapt a healthy lifestyle to take you through the demanding times and to achieve the best possible results and outcomes.
