To qualify for aged-care funding in Australia, whether in-home, short-term care, or support in an aged-care home, an individual must first undertake an assessment to determine the level of care they need.

Eligibility is based on factors like your health, how you’re managing at home, and any support you currently receive. Individuals must also be 65 years or older (50 years or older for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people).

One of the core differences between the NDIS and a home-care package is the age of an individual. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) supports younger people under 65 with a permanent and significant disability, while a home-care package provides support for elderly Australians who want to stay independent at home.

While younger people under 65 may be eligible for an aged-care home-care package they must first explore accessing support through the NDIS.

People living with a disability may access remedial massage therapy or physiotherapy through Blys to support their mobility, fitness and life goals.

As providers are required to bring all equipment with them, we apply a $20 surcharge if free parking nearby is unavailable. Please let us know in your enquiry form or when booking online what type of parking is available. Free parking includes free street parking and on-site parking.

As everyone’s needs are different, so too are is the care each eligible individual recieves. Often support funding provides assistance with daily tasks e.g cleaning the house, organising appointments and transportation. This could also services that help you stay mobile and well e.g massage and physiotherapy or nail and haircare services.

As the name suggests, Home Care refers to individuals who live at home and recieve support and funding to help them with their day to day activities.

Residential Aged Care refers to when an individual moves into an aged-care facility with other elderly residents and receives the support they need within their home.
