Real Support. Real Impact.
Right Here in Your Community.

We’re thrilled to announce that Sistability has been named a finalist in four prestigious categories at the Ballina Business Awards, taking place at the Ballina RSL on Saturday 2 August 2025. This recognition is a testament to our team’s unwavering dedication to quality, inclusion and genuine care—and we’re so proud to be celebrated alongside the outstanding businesses that make our region so vibrant.

On June 11th, our team at Sistability had the pleasure of visiting the wonderful residents of Riverbend Retirement Village. This special visit was an opportunity to connect with the community, share how we can support their aged care journey, and enjoy a morning of meaningful conversations. The day was filled with warmth, delicious treats, and a sense of camaraderie that exemplifies the heart of what Sistability is all about.

As we welcome the new financial year, aged care recipients and their families have reason to celebrate. From 1 July 2025, government funding for aged care services has received a substantial boost—offering renewed hope, enhanced care options, and a commitment to dignity for older Australians.

Whether at home or in residential care, these funding increases promise to deliver better coverage, personalised support, and improved service quality. It’s not just about numbers—it’s about meaningful change for those who need it most.

Discover what this funding means for you, your loved ones, and the future of aged care in Australia.

As the cooler months are now here, winter cleaning becomes essential to prepare your home for the challenges that come with the season. From the increased moisture in the air to the heavy use of heating systems, winter brings a unique set of cleaning tasks to address. If you want to ensure your home stays warm, dry, and hygienic during the colder months, it’s time to get your cleaning routine ready for winter.

In this guide, we’ll cover key winter-specific cleaning tips that will help you maintain a healthy, safe, and comfortable home throughout the season.

About Kirby: A busy mum of two, active in her community and living with her disability makes deep-cleaning tasks painful and difficult.

The Challenge: Although Kirby keeps on top of basic tidying, heavier jobs—like scrubbing the bathroom, degreasing kitchen surfaces, spot-cleaning walls and thorough floor work—were triggering arthritis flare-ups. These tasks left her fatigued and posed slip hazards for her and the kids.

“I really struggle to do deeper cleaning like the bathroom… I can manage basic daily tasks, but long sessions on my feet or hard scrubbing just aren’t possible for me.”

Finding the right aged care solution for your loved one is one of the most important decisions you’ll make—especially in regional NSW. Whether you call Ballina, Byron Bay or Lismore home, opting for a genuinely local HCP provider and home care package partner delivers benefits that distant, metro-based agencies simply can’t match.

From on-the-ground expertise and lightning-fast response times to face-to-face accessibility at our Tamar St Ballina office, local providers offer personalised aged care coordination, community investment and cultural insight.
