Home Care Funding Options

It is understandable that it is confusing sorting through the numerous sources of funding for homecare services. We, however, can help you sift through the funding sources so that you can obtain the services that you need in a way that is affordable for you.

Government Sponsored

Home Care Packages (HCP)

Home Care Packages (HCP) is a government-funded program that is dedicated to helping older Australians in need of support in maintaining their home living for as long as possible. These packages are specifically suited according to the individual’s need and can be applied in various services like personal, nursing, cleaning, and more.

There exist four degrees of Home Care Packages, which are funded according to need assessment for care. Funding is varied according to level, ranging from level A for lower-level care needs through level D for more substantial-level care needs. In order for funding, a client is initially evaluated by the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) or the Regional Assessment Service (RAS). A package is accessed after approval is made, and money is spent through payment for services that allow people to stay in their home independently.

National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

For people with disability, NDIS provides funding support for various care necessities. NDIS is a government-funded plan that aims at helping people with permanent and substantial disability so that they can lead more independent and enriching lives. The funding can be applied towards various services, such as assistance with daily living skills, therapy services, and equipment or assistive technology.

Each NDIS participant is provided with their individualized plan that is according to their individual goals and requirements. The NDIS plan would outline what support and services they need, and this is what is funded. This means that there is flexibility and choice when choosing the optimal caregivers and services for the individual. Whether the individual requires personal help, routine in the home, or community engagement, NDIS funding is intended to allow participants as much independence as possible.

Non-government funded

Private Home Care

For individuals that do not meet government eligibility, or for individuals that desire more flexibility with services, private home care is a possibility. The funding is through the individual in the way of private payment for services. There is more flexibility in private home care, with services provided in a way that is more specifically according to the individual, without government regulation or funding packages.

Private home care can be as intensive as is necessary, from a handful of hours each week to full-time, depending on the client’s individual circumstance. It also gives the client the freedom to decide their preferred carers in order to deliver maximum compatibility and home environment adaptation. Private homecare is also opted by many individuals in order to supplement government-funded homecare, and in addition be provided with more individualised homecare planning that is more suited to their individual requirements.

What’s My Next Step?

If you, or your relative, are considering homecare services, the second stage is determining the level of care that is required and choosing which funding route is most appropriate for you. We can help navigate this process, be it government-funded home care through Home Care Packages or the NDIS, or through privately funded homecare services.

The first stage is to contact us so that we can discuss your requirements and your preferences. We can assist with the application for funding from the government, should you be qualified, and help you through the assessment process.

Having identified the most appropriate funding option, we would then assist in matching you with the most appropriate professional carer or carers who cater specifically to your requirements. Your preferences, schedules, and any health implications that specifically concern you are considered in order to deliver the best level of care.

At each stage, we try our best to make it easy and hassle-free. Our staff is available to assist you, providing professional advice and sensitive support, so that you can make the most informed decisions about your future care needs.
