If you’ve been approved for a Home Care Package but haven’t started using it, you might be missing out on meaningful support that helps you stay independent, safe and connected.
Whether it’s help around the house, getting to appointments, or someone to share a cuppa with, small changes can make a big difference.
We’ll help you make the most of your funding now and support you through the upcoming changes to the aged care system.

😀 What does NDIS support that actually fits your life look like?

For one of our Member Stu and his wife Tahanee, it looked like this:
