Government Programs
A Home Care Package is a coordinated and flexible package that allows individuals to remain living in the comfort of their own homes. Each Home Care Package is tailored in order to cater for a variety of care needs.
There are currently four levels of Home Care Packages:
- Home Care Package Level 1: basic level care needs
- Home Care Package Level 2: low level care needs
- Home Care Package Level 3: intermediate level care needs
- Home Care Package Level 4: high level care needs
Home Care Packages receive funding from the federal Government, however if you are able to do so, you may be asked to make a contribution towards your Home Care Package costs.
Private Providers and Not-for-Profit Organisations
Not-for-profit organisations may also provide Home Care and therefore with a charitable reduction.
There are also private providers which are sometimes in conjunction with government programs, however hourly rates do apply.
