A Home Care Package gives you government-funded support to stay safely in your own home for longer. We'll help you understand your options and build a plan that fits your life.
Your package is flexible. Choose the services that matter most to you — and change them as your needs evolve.
Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and other daily personal tasks — delivered with dignity and respect.
Cleaning, laundry, and household tasks so your home stays safe, comfortable, and well maintained.
Meal preparation, grocery shopping assistance, or home-delivered meals when needed.
Getting to medical appointments, social outings, shopping, and community activities safely.
Registered nurses, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and podiatry at home.
Grab rails, ramps, shower chairs, and other modifications to reduce falls and improve safety.
A Home Care Package (HCP) is a government-subsidised program that helps older Australians (65+) live independently at home. You receive a budget from the government and choose how to spend it on approved support services.
There are four levels of packages, ranging from basic support to high-level care. The right level for you depends on your assessed care needs.
Don't let the process put you off. We'll guide you through every step.
Call 1800 200 422 or visit myagedcare.gov.au to register for an assessment. Or call us — we'll help you do this.
A free, in-home assessment determines the level of support you need. We can attend with you if you'd like.
Once approved, you'll be placed in a national queue. Average wait times vary by level — we'll keep you informed.
Choose Uniting as your provider. We set up your personalised care plan and your support begins.
