Age Care & Registered NDIS Provider
Age Care & Registered NDIS Provider
The government provides funding to help older Australians stay at home longer. It can feel overwhelming at first, but we’re here to walk you through it, step by step.
The Australian Government provides funding to help older people receive care and support at home. This means you may not need to pay the full cost of your care, the government contributes based on your assessed needs.
The main program is called Support at Home (which replaced Home Care Packages from July 2025). It’s designed to help you stay independent in your own home for as long as possible.
You don’t need to figure this out alone. We help families navigate the funding process every day, and we’re happy to explain your options at no cost.
Support at Home is the government’s main funding program for older Australians. It replaced the old Home Care Packages system and is designed to be simpler and more flexible.
Australians aged 65+ (or 50+ for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people) who need support to continue living at home.
You start by contacting My Aged Care (1800 200 422). They’ll arrange an assessment to understand your needs. Once approved, you choose a provider like Montessori Care to deliver your services.
Personal care, domestic assistance, meal preparation, social support, transport, home maintenance, nursing, and allied health, depending on your assessed needs.
Assessment timeframes vary, but we can help you prepare and even provide private care while you wait for your funding to come through.
