Out of Hospital Care (OHC) Program

The NSW Health Out of Hospital Care Program helps patients get back on their feet after they have been discharged from a public hospital. It provides assistance with things like housework, getting dressed, travelling to appointments and cooking meals, so you can focus on your recovery.

Home Caring provides services under the OHC Program under three different packages:

  • Community Packages (ComPacks)
  • Safe and Supported at Home (SASH)
  • End of Life (EoL)

Our support workers and case managers provide high quality care that is tailored to your unique needs. We’ll help you with everyday tasks, so you can transition well from hospital and resume living independently at home. You can also transition between packages, depending on your changing needs.

For more information about our NSW Out of Hospital services, please get in touch. We’re more than happy to help.

Community Packages (ComPaks)

This is a short-term package of services that helps you regain independence after you’ve been in hospital. Available to participating NSW public hospitals, it can help you have a safe and early discharge, so you can get back to everyday life as soon as possible.

ComPaks includes services such as:

  • Personal care such as help with bathing, hygiene and getting dressed
  • Domestic assistance to help with cleaning, shopping and laundry
  • Meal preparation or meal deliveries to your home
  • Transport and social support, such as help with the shopping
  • In-home respite to give carers a break

In some areas, ComPacks can be used as an early intervention to avoid a stay in hospital. This is called ComPacks Healthy at Home. To find out whether this is offered in your area, please get in touch.

SASH (Safe and Supported at Home)

This program supports people with a functional impairment who are in the process of applying from the NDIS, or are ineligible for NDIS funding. We’ll help you with daily living tasks, so you feel supported in your own home.

SASH is available for six weeks, but can be repeated depending on your needs. Our services include:

  • Personal care such as help with bathing, hygiene and getting dressed
  • Domestic assistance to help with cleaning, shopping and laundry
  • Meal preparation or meal deliveries to your home
  • Transport and social support, such as help with the shopping
  • In-home respite to give carers a break 

End of Life

This package is designed for those who are in the terminal phase of their illness, and who wish to die in their own home or live at home for as long as possible. We also provide support to family members, taking care of everyday tasks so you can spend quality time with your loved one.

EoL packages are available for six weeks, but it can be repeated depended on your needs. It includes:

Even as we head into the final month of the year our incredible Home Caring teams show no signs of slowing down! Fueled by their passion for helping others they’ve been working tirelessly to make a difference in the lives of our clients. Last weekend our Home Caring Vermont HomeCaring Narre Warren Home Caring Footscray HomeCaring Mornington Peninsula Home Caring St Albans Eltham and Bellarine teams all came together to showcase their dedication and expertise at the Melbourne Disability Expo.

The expo was an amazing opportunity for our teams to connect with the local community, meet new faces and raise awareness about the vital work we do. From sharing insights into our services to forming meaningful connections all of our Melbourne teams went above and beyond to make the event a resounding success. It’s clear that when you’re passionate about your work, it never feels like a job – and this passion was on full display throughout the weekend. A big thank you to everyone involved for representing Home Caring with such heart and dedication! 🩵

Happy Friday HC fam!

It’s been a busy and productive week here at Home Caring with only forty days till the end of the year we are full steam ahead! One highlight was the team-building and networking session with our amazing Home Caring Bankstown team. The workshop was a huge success bringing everyone together to learn, grow and strengthen our skills.

These sessions are such a valuable part of what we do as they foster connection, build efficiency and empower us to deliver the best care to our clients. As we all know being a support worker can sometimes feel isolating but moments like these remind us of the incredible community we’re all a part of.

Let’s all carry that energy into the weekend—it’s going to be a hot one, so stay cool and take care! 🩵

Happy Sunday HC fam! Recently our Home Caring Vermont team had the privilege of attending the 20th anniversary celebration of Hope City Mission, a vital organisation making a profound difference in our community. As proud sponsors we deeply admire their unwavering dedication to providing food relief, support and hope to those in need. Hope City Mission’s initiatives extend far and wide from their compassionate crisis support programs to sustainable efforts like planting seedlings, whose produce directly benefits people facing hardship. It’s a joy to stand beside them in their mission to uplift lives and foster resilience.

Our sponsorship reflects Home Caring’s core value of giving without expecting anything in return. We’re thrilled to have contributed to initiatives like installing a sprinkler system to nurture their community garden, where fresh produce is grown for those living in crisis. Supporting Hope City Mission means investing in kindness, growth and care and we couldn’t be prouder to play a part in their incredible journey. Here’s to creating positive change together! 🩵
