In Australia, funding is available for aged support from either the Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) or the Home Care Packages program (HCP). If you are under 65 and require assistance you can apply to the National Disability Insurance Scheme. The CHSP offers entry level support. Higher levels of support are offered by the HCP.
In-home support in Australia centres around the principles of Consumer Directed Care. According to these principles, you get to decide who provides the services that you require, what services you need and in what quantity. The Client Management consultants overseeing our East Brisbane Home Support can help you to make the choices that balance your lifestyle goals with your finances.
The government subsidy for which you qualify will be paid into your account monthly. Every month we will send you a detailed statement of account which will help you to keep track of your receipts and expenditure. This transparency can help you to choose the best set of services that suits your needs and your budget. If you don’t spend all of the funds, the government permits you to accumulate them month on month and year on year.
