Caring for your parents while raising kids and keeping your career on track is a lot.
Australian Unity Home Health & Care is here to make it easier — with early, practical support that helps your parents stay well and living at home for longer.
That’s why we’ve teamed up with Club Sandwich: a podcast dedicated to real talk, expert advice and zero guilt. Giving you clear guidance and support that grows with your family’s needs.
We all want the people we love to live safely, comfortably, independently as they age. But starting a conversation about home care can feel daunting - it's easy to worry about how they'll react or whether it's the "right time."
That's why we've created a simple, practical guide to help you prepare. Inside, you'll find helpful tips, gentle conversation starters, and things to think about before you sit down with your family.

If you feel it could be time to talk to your parents and start organising some care to help them stay living at home, we’re here to support you both — easing the pressure while keeping your parents in control of their care.
Ageing doesn’t follow a rulebook, and life certainly doesn’t either. That’s why we’re rewriting the rules of living, with home health and care services that help your parents to keep doing the things that matter to them, in the place they feel most at home.
Because with the right support, life doesn’t have to slow down as you age.
Sometimes a fall or illness is what prompts families to organise support. But ageing usually changes daily life gradually — and getting care in place early can make a big difference in shaping how well your parents age at home, and reduce stress later on.
Our connected care teams take time to understand your parents, anticipate what’s next, and adjust support as life changes — reducing stress, uncertainty and last‑minute decisions.
From everyday help to clinical care, everything is coordinated through one trusted provider, so you don’t have to keep starting over.
Starting a conversation with your parents about home care can feel daunting, but getting the right support early can help them stay safe, comfortable, and independent at home.
That's why we've created a simple, practical guide with tips, conversation starters, and key things to consider - so you can approach the discussion with confidence.
If you're juggling kids, a career, and parents who are starting to need more support, you're part of the "sandwich generation."
The Club Sandwich podcast is here to help, offering honest conversations, expert advice, and practical strategies to navigate caring for ageing parents while balancing everything else on your plate.
