Health and Wellbeing Meeting

Understanding the aged care sysem and how to access funding for the right care.

None of us want to think about needing care, but the reality is, some of us will need it to stay in our homes as long as possible

Rosie Macdonald is a Registered Nurse who works for Hendercare in WA.  Hendercare has been providing aged care services supporting older Austrlaians since 2004.  Rosie will discuss Home Care Packages and the Commonwealth Home Support Program.  She will explain the options available and what people need to think about when deciding to get services that allow you to live at home for longer.

Rosie works with clients who are ineligible for government-funded packages and opt to pay privately, helping them to establish their support needs and set up an individaul plan to meet their goals.

If you have ever wondered how the aged care funding system works and what it might cost to stay at home as you get older, then this session is a must.
