Comprehensive Care Coordination Tailored to Your Needs
As your dedicated coordinator, I focus on providing consistent care. I learn your routines and preferences to ensure a personal experience every time.
Our care plans are flexible, fitting all four levels of Home Care Packages. Whether you need basic support or high-level care, we tailor our services for you.
What is Home Care and How Can It Help?
Home care services are available for seniors aged 65 or older and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. They help keep seniors independent at home. These services cover personal care, household help, and more, making homes safe and comfy.
Understanding Your Care Options
| Service Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Personal Care | Assistance with bathing, dressing, and grooming |
| Domestic Assistance | Help with tasks that have become more difficult including household cleaning, laundry, Ironing, and meal preparation |
| Nursing Care | Access to home nursing services, including wound care, catheter care, skin assessments, and more. |
| Allied Health Support | Connecting you to essential health services such as dietitian, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and podiatry. |
| Social Activities | Companionship and community engagement to reduce social isolation. |
| Minor home maintenace | Including gardening, window cleaning, gutter cleaning, and ensuring pathway safety. |
| Meal delivery | Fresh meals delivered to your home, with up to 70% of the cost covered by your care package. |

Home care helps seniors stay connected and independent, reducing the need for residential care. An ACAT assessment is often needed to determine support levels and create a care plan. With the right support, seniors can live comfortably at home with dignity.
Navigating Your Home Care Package
Home care packages let older Australians stay at home while getting the help they need. This is thanks to funding based on their specific needs. The amount of funding you get depends on your care package level. This level is set by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT).
Understanding the Different Levels of Care Available

| Level 1 (Basic care) | $10,588.65 | $29.01 | Light housekeeping, personal care, social support. Ideal for those with low care needs. |
| Level 2 (Low care) | $18,622.30 | $51.02 | Personal care, Domestic assistance meal preparation, and some allied health services. Suitable for those needing a bit more assistance. |
| Level 3 (Intermediate care) | $40,529.60 | $111.04 | Regular care, nursing support, social support, equipment hire, domestic assistance, and transport For those with moderate care needs |
| Level 4 (High care) | $61,444.45 | $168.34 | Extensive support including 24/7 care, complex clinical care, and minor home modifications. Designed for individuals with high care needs. |
Your eligibility for a particular level is determined by an assessment conducted by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT). Once your care package is approved, we work with you to create a tailored support plan that maximizes the funding and meets your specific needs.
