What is the new Support at Home program? Listen to our podcast!
Big changes are coming to home care, and we want to make sure older Australians feel confident and supported. The Federal Government is introducing the Support at Home Program, designed to help people stay independent at home longer, with improved access to care, tailored pathways, and simplified funding.
In this episode of our podcast Age Old Problems: New Aged Care, Helping Hand’s Aged Care Connector Mel Bassham explains:
- What Support at Home is and why it matters
- What current and new clients should expect
- How the new model is helping people access what they need earlier
- Where to go for help when things feel confusing
It’s a must-listen if you or a loved one is currently receiving home care services or thinking about it.
If you have any questions please call the Helping Hand Home Care Services Team on 1300 444 663.
