About Peninsula InHome Care Specialists
Local, compassionate in-home care built on trust, relationships, and genuine understanding.
Our Story
Peninsula InHome Care Specialists (PIHCS) is a privately owned, trusted in-home care provider based in Mount Eliza, created from a genuine desire to make a difference in people’s lives and their families’.
Our Director, Bronwyn Hewitt, began her career as an ICT specialist before transitioning into aged care in 2016. What started as a career change quickly became a calling – supporting seniors and their families in a way that is personal, respectful, and deeply human.
In 2022, PIHCS was established to provide a more personalised, relationship-based approach to in-home care across the Mornington Peninsula – helping elderly people live safely and independently at home.
