Choosing how to manage your package.
We offer a range of package management options to help you get the best possible support from your Home Care Package. We offer a range of different options based on your individual care needs.
Self-management
With self-management you hire and schedule your care services you want, when it suits you. That means you get to choose the care provider, the time they visit, how often they visit and often the rate they charge, helping you get more from the same funding.
Part-management
With part-management, we set up your care services. And from there you take on the day to day coordination.
Full-management
With full management you get the full support of a Care Manager who sets everything up for you.
Home care package costs.
We charge a low and transparent combined fees and are passionate about helping you get more from your Home Care Package with us. Your Home Care Package level will determine the funds you have available to spend on the home care services you need at home. Regardless of which level of funding you have we charge no hidden fees including the basic daily fee. We help you get more from your funding.
- Level 1
A Level 1 package is designed to support older Australians with basic home care needs. It is the lowest level of funding through a Home Care Package.
- Level 2
A Level 2 Home Care Package supports those individuals with low level care needs to get support from aged care services at home.
- Level 3
A Level 3 Home Care Package supports those with intermediate care needs to live better lives at home. Your funds will be used to spend on the care services you need at home.
- Level 4
Level 4 is the highest level of Home Care Packages funding and there to support those older people with high care needs. Your Home Care Package budget on a Level 4 will have over $50,000 per year to go towards the Home Care Package fees of the Provider you choose, as well as your supports and services.
Starting the process.
Starting the process can seem like the hardest part, but with our support it’s easy. We help eligible older Australians get the quality care services they need through their Australian government funded Home Care Packages to improve and maintain their health and wellbeing.
You might have a package, have had a meeting with the Aged Care Assessment team and are waiting to receive one, or this could be your first time visiting an aged care website, it can still be confusing regardless of where you are in the journey. If you’re an older person not quite sure where to start, or you’re looking into aged care on behalf of your family members, we can help explain the process.
