The remarkable health benefits of pet therapy in aged care
Pet therapy is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding psychological treatments suggested by our specialists. It’s not hard to see why. Apart from the endless joy of playing with trained therapy animals, pet therapy is well-studied and has a proven record of dramatically improving the physical and mental health of elderly patients — including those with dementia.
Nursing home residents participating in our individual or community therapy animal program can expect a bevy of benefits. These can include:
- Muscle development and fine motor skills, improving assisted or independent movement
- Improved verbal communication function, improving self-confidence and encouraging socialisation
- Lowered blood pressure and stress, improving overall mental health and wellbeing

Perché scegliere Oxa Care
Entering aged care can be a vulnerable step for even the most confident and independent residents. It takes time for residents to fully settle in and build strong relationships with their caregivers. For over three decades now, we’ve earned the trust and confidence of our residents by delivering on our promises of personalised and personal care. Our residents deserve to live with dignity and support so that they can meet the challenges and joys of ageing with grace. We’re proud to do our part to help.
La comunità è tutto
We’ve fostered a supportive and welcoming community where every resident feels safe and supported.
Assistenza personalizzata
The key to effective aged care is communication. We work transparently with our residents and their families and chosen medical specialists.
How to pay for aged care at Oxa Care
Financial discussions are always a point of anxiety. Allow us to make things clear and simple. Our aged care payment options include Refundable Accommodation Deposits (RADs), Daily Accommodation Payments (DAPs) or a combination of both. A RAD is a lump sum paid at the start of your residence, and the DAP is a daily payment. You can use our handy sliding scale to discern the most economical combination of RAD and DAP payments. If you’d like more advice, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Animal-assisted therapy works wonders for our dementia patients
Studies have shown that animal-assisted therapy offers significant benefits for dementia patients. The confusion dementia induces brings with it pervasive feelings of anxiety and depression. The inability to communicate can leave patients feeling isolated and frustrated. All of these can be alleviated with structured pet therapy.
Playing with specially trained animals (under diligent guidance) offers dementia patients a safe yet mentally stimulating activity. It encourages communication, focus and memory recall. Studies have shown a 50% improvement in mental health.
