Home Care Package

Live independently in your own home

There are many benefits that come with using a Home Care Package to continue living in your own home and maintaining your independence for longer. On top of having the comforts of home and a familiar space, you will also live a much more independent lifestyle – choosing what and when you eat, having visitors over at any time of day and taking part in activities that you enjoy.

The Government provides a Home Care Package to fund services that will allow you to stay at home safely and for assistance with day-to-day tasks. Accept Care, an approved Home Care Package provider, is here to partner with you to create an Individualised Care Plan and ensure that you are receiving the services you want by trained and experienced professionals.

What is a Home Care Package?

Home Care Packages are funded by the Australian Government to help older Australians continue living safely and independently in their own home.

Am I eligible for a Home Care Package?

The basic eligibility criteria for seniors for a Home Care package is an older person who requires coordinated services to remain in their own home.

There are four different levels of packages ranging from basic care needs to high level care needs. The Government contributes a different amount at each level.

Client Testimonial

“Accept Care has been providing care for my grandma for over a year. We know about Accept because the carer who was allocated to my grandmother for her transition care after leaving hospital worked for Accept. I would have no hesitation recommending Accept to others needing carers for their family members. Everyone working at Accept, from the general manager to the carers and all the office staff have been really helpful and all work for the common goal of providing the best care for the patient.”
