Follow these 5 easy steps to access Home Care.

Contact My Aged Care

When you contact My Aged Care, they’ll ask you a series of questions to put you on their register. They’ll then arrange for an assessment to determine if you’re eligible for Home Care and what level of Home Care you require. This assessment can be done in your home.

Organise an Aged Care Assessment

To access Home Care packages, you must arrange an assessment with the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT), which is part of the Government’s My Aged Care department. Before you contact ACAT, we’re happy to talk with you about the process and what items to have ready, so you’re prepared with all the information you need to register with ACAT.

Receive the outcome of your assessment.

If you meet the criteria, ACAT will notify you of the outcome of your assessment and approve you. You can then contact us, and we’ll send a dedicated Case Manager to your home to visit you. Your Case Manager will go over our services with you and tailor a care plan to match your needs and budget.

Select Catholic Homes as your provider.

After your Case Manager visits you at your home and you’ve decided on a plan together, you can select us as your Home Care provider and sign up for the Home Care package that has been specifically devised for you.

We complete all your paperwork and get your services up and running

Your Catholic Homes Case Manager will activate your referral code so you can start receiving your home care services and funding, which will start straight away.

A Home Care Package provides services tailored to meet your care needs. It helps you enjoy your home for as long as possible as you get older, while giving you choice and flexibility in how your care and services are provided to you at home.

Catholic Homes can offer four types of Home Care packages, from low to high care, and each service is funded at different levels.

Contact one of our experienced case managers, who will help you create a support plan and budget to suit your package fund and needs.

For those who require lower levels of support, their assessment will be done by the Regional Assessment Service. 

A face-to-face or phone assessment will quickly determine if you can assess entry-level services under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme some of which can be provided by Catholic Homes.

The assessor will be able to determine what services you are eligible for once the assessment is complete.

If your needs are straightforward, you might be eligible for entry-level Home Care under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP). Your assessor should be able to confirm this during your assessment.

You need a referral to access CHSP services. The RAS assessor will advise provider options and refer to your preferred provider. Catholic Homes may assist you in commencing the services you need.

If you need more complex care, your written confirmation will be given. You’ll receive a letter from the aged care assessment team stating you have been assigned a package, keep this letter and you can contact Catholic Homes if we are your preferred provider. 

Catholic Homes' Short-Term Restorative Care provides a range of care and services to improve your well-being and help you stay independent by improving your ability to complete everyday tasks.
