Data shows that more than 50% of senior citizens prefer to ‘age in place,’ meaning they want aged care in their own homes.
We completely understand that and want our seniors to stay independent and comfortable. That is why we also offer flexible services, including in-home care, so you can cherish the home you’ve made countless memories in while making many more.
Some benefits of choosing in-home care:
Q1: How do I apply for My Aged Care services?
A: You can call My Aged Care at 1800 200 422, book an ACAT assessment, and once approved, you receive a home care package eligible for onboarding.
Q2: How long does it take to start?
A: Typically, 4–6 weeks after ACAT approval and package allocation. We aim to start services ASAP, depending on your preferred start date.
Q3: Can I upgrade services later?
A: Yes. We regularly check in to adjust services – whether to increase assistance or add clinical support.
Q4: How much do Aged Care services cost?
A: The government funds most of the care. You have an optional ‘basic daily fee,’ plus any agreed ‘extra service’ fees. We explain all costs upfront.
