Home Care Packages

Home Care packages for in-home assistance.

At Focus Care we believe in embracing our older years as a time of new possibilities.

Home Care Packages

Government subsidy giving seniors access to home care services

We offer private services, government-approved Home Care Packages, and specialised innovative dementia care programs. We know that everyone is different and has individual needs. Our approach to care means that we can help you live the life you want, for longer.

Basic Home Care

Level 1 Package

Including

  • Subsidy of up to $24.73 per day

  • 2 hours of services per week without any contribution or extra supplements

  • We do not charge Establishment fees

Example:

Mr Jones, Avid gardener, In-Home Aged Care - Focus Care
Mr Jones
Avid gardener

Mr Jones is an active and healthy 67-year-old, however he has moderate arthritis in his hips. Mr Jones has a large house and garden and his doctor has recommended avoiding overly strenuous activities. His Level 1 home care package subsidy covers the cost of a Focus Care Worker visiting a couple of hours a week to do the gardening, mow his lawn and change the bed sheets.

If over time Mr Jones’ living conditions change or his arthritis intensifies, Focus Care will help him to be reassessed by ACAT to achieve a Level 2 Home Care Package.
