While both the HCP and CHSP give you support to stay living at home, there are significant differences between the programs. These are both government funded programs to help you stay at home, rather than in an aged care home.
After your assessment, you will receive a letter from My Aged Care letting you know the outcome of your assessment. If you are eligible for support you will be approved for a specific level (1,2,3 or 4) and placed in the national queue to wait for a package to be assigned to you.
When you are assigned your package, you will receive another letter indicating your assigned level and an individual referral code. At this time, you’ll need to choose your Provider.
At Let’s Get Care we have the largest list of service providers in Australia which is growing every day. We also don’t lock you into using our own staff at inflated costs, instead we broker our services nationally. This means you have the freedom to choose and find carers, such as in home nursing assistants right for your situation, local to you.
