What is a Home Care Package?

A Home Care Package is a support program funded by the government that helps older Australians live independently in their own home. It provides different services designed to meet the person’s needs, such as help with showering, transport to appointments, help with the laundry and cleaning, exercise classes, and physiotherapy sessions. These services are provided by home carers and healthcare professionals with experience in home care.

The aim of a Home Care Package is to empower seniors to make choices about their care. This means recipients can customise their packages according to the level of care they are eligible for, and create a care plan that truly meets their needs. Your Home Care Package can also adapt as your needs do, providing ongoing assistance to help you stay at home for as long as possible. Accessing home care services can help prevent premature entry into an aged care facility, and ensure a continued connection with your local community. It can also help you stay close to your support network, and enjoy a great quality of life at home.

How much a Home Care Package costs varies, based on what your financial situation is, and the level of care you are approved for. The government provides funds for Home Care Package recipients, making it much more affordable to access quality care in your home. To cover the rest of the cost, you may need to make a contribution towards the care of your services. This is paid through the following fees:

  • A basic daily fee – set as a percentage of the age pension, this is a daily amount that you need to contribute towards the cost of your care.
  • An income-tested care fee – you may be asked to contribute a certain amount to the cost of your care, based on your financial situation. Your government subsidy will be reduced by the amount you are assessed as eligible to pay.
  • Any additional fees that are charged by your provider for their services.

Home Caring provides affordable home care packages in Geelong that are designed to use your government funding in the most cost-effective way possible. We’ll ensure that you only get the services you need, and make your package go as far as possible. To learn more about our support team, please get in touch with our customer support staff.

A Home Care Package is designed to be flexible and customisable to your unique needs and circumstances. Depending on the level you have been approved for, you can use your package for:

  • Help with personal care tasks
  • Meal preparation
  • Feeding and hydration (including PEG feeding)
  • Continence management and stoma support
  • Mobility assistance
  • Independent living aids and assistive technology
  • Domestic assistance to keep your home tidy

Need someone to provide a Home Care Package Level 2 in Geelong? Home Caring provides exceptional support from nurses and care workers who are local to your area. Enjoy quality support in your own home from a team you can trust. To learn more about our approach to aged care, please get in touch with our customer care team.

To be approved for a Home Care Package, you first need to complete an ACAT assessment, to determine whether it’s the best solution for your care needs. Applying for an assessment is relatively simple – go to the My Aged Care website and fill out the online form, or call My Aged Care on 1800 200 422. You’ll need your Medicare card handy and a form of ID, and you’ll also be asked questions about your living situation and care needs. You can also ask a friend or family member to apply on your behalf.

If you might be eligible for a Home Care Package, an ACAT member will give you call and arrange for a time to visit you for a face-to-face assessment. When they visit, the team member will chat to you about how you’re coping at home, any health issues you have, and what type of care might best suit your needs. You can also ask any questions that you may have, and learn about care services in your area. You don’t have to be assessed alone – you can have someone with you for support the whole team.

After your ACAT assessment, the team will decide whether you are eligible for a Home Care Package. If you have approved for one, you’ll receive a letter from My Aged Care that states what level you are approved for. You’ll then be placed in a national queue until your Home Care Package is available to you.

Home Caring is extremely excited to see the launch of the National Autism Strategy, a significant step toward creating a more inclusive society. This strategy focuses on improving community involvement, education and employment opportunities as well as enhancing diagnosis, services and support systems for autistic individuals. To truly make a difference, these commitments must be backed by fully funded, long-term action plans that are both led by autistic voices and aligned with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD). We strongly support calls for: ~ An end to harmful NDIS reassessments that leave autistic individuals without crucial supports. ~ Increased funding for early intervention, diagnostic services and therapies. ~ Fully funded plans that ensure timely access to services particularly for those in marginalised communities.
