At home care options for support in your home

Whether you require basic care or more complex needs, our dedicated support worker team have caring hands and are here to help you maintain your daily routine and independence, your way.

One of the ways we can do that is helping you understand the range of home care options including home care packages and support services available to help you, a family member or a loved one to stay independent at home and to stay connected to community.  As trusted aged home care providers, our friendly team members can assist you in navigating home care services, explain any fees involved such as exit fees, assist with your ACAT assessment and more.

No matter what your needs are, or your current financial situation, our team can create a personalised care plan tailored to your individual needs and circumstances, providing specialised services around the house to help you remain independent at home, give you more freedom and improve your well-being.

Government funded options for in home aged care assistance

The Australian Government subsidises the cost of home support services in Perth, and if you are over the age of 65, you can apply for these Government subsidies.

There are two types of Australian Government funded program services available to assist you, such as the Commonwealth Home Support Programme. This program aims to provide funds to access entry level home care services. As well as a Government subsidised service, we can support you with private home care services in Perth so you can choose the best option for you to get help around the home and enjoy a more independent life in your own space rather than moving to an aged care residential facility.
