Understanding your funding options

Home and Community Support

If you’re considering Home and Community Support, it’s important to understand the service and funding options available to you.

Home care services can be government funded, privately self-funded, or a combination of both. Your age, the level of care you require and your financial circumstances can help you determine which option will apply to you.

Funding options at glance

There are a number of state and federal government-funded programs designed to support your wellbeing and independence.

Each program will have specific eligibility criteria, and for some, access may depend on your location. We can provide step-by-step advice to help you navigate the application process.

  • Available to everyone over 65 years (or over 50 for ATSI) who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or on a low income.
