Family & Carer Support

Family & Carer Support

Families and carers may have experienced a crisis situation with a loved one may need some support in caring for a person for a period of time. It is very common for family members and carers to suffer from stress and depression because of the demands of their support roles, and because they are anxious about the health of a loved one. The Hobart Clinic encourages carers to identify themselves to staff. If you are in need of an information pack for carers, please inform staff who will arrange relevant information for you.

Visiting your Loved Ones

Family, carers and friends are welcome to visit inpatients in designated areas.

Visiting hours allow our residents to attend their therapy programs and specialist appointments which is an essential part of their healing.

To respect the privacy of all patients, we request that all visitors first sign in at reception, or for out-of-hours to the Nurses Station, prior to proceeding to their family or friend.

Please refer to our Frequently Asked Questions page for our visitation rules and hours due to COVID-19 restrictions.
