Navigating the Support at Home Program
From 1 July 2025, the current Home Care Package system will be replaced by the Support at Home Program. This change is designed to simplify aged care, create more consistency, and introduce a cap on management fees.
If you’re already receiving care, you don’t need to worry. Bannister In Home Care will help you transition smoothly and make sure your services continue without disruption. We can assist with:
Understanding how your funding will work
Keeping your preferred services and support workers
Creating a plan for your current and future care needs
Ensuring you're supported under the new program from day one
We’re already operating within the new program’s guidelines, so you won’t experience any surprises or fee increases.
