Aged Care Online

What is Extra Service Care?

Extra Services in residential aged care are additional hotel-like services which aged care homes are not legally required to provide.

Extra Services in residential aged care can include things like:

  • A larger bedroom, often private with an ensuite bathroom
  • More meal choices
  • A glass of wine with dinner
  • Daily newspaper/magazine delivery
  • Hairdressing services
  • Pay TV in the bedroom

To pay for Extra Services, an additional fee could be included in the daily care fee, or you may be required to pay a bond.

The fee will vary between aged care residences.
