The Intereach Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Center (CRCC)

www.intereach.com.au 20 Peter St, Wagga. Ph. 02 6932 8300

Provides short term support for NSW carers, so that family members can stay at home. There is no set fee to access general advice and support. Depending on your needs, and the person you are caring for, a carer contribution will be discussed. Your ability to contribute will be determined by you. Carers are allocated a support coordinator who will match their needs with services in the local area. They broker local service providers to then provide the service you need, for example, Australian Unity.
Practical support can include:

  • information and resources

  • counselling

  • education

  • planning (both long term and for an emergency)

  • connecting with other carers

  • respite (emergency or short-term)
