Temporary accommodation can provide urgent relief — but it’s not a long-term solution to homelessness.

Short stays, limited support, and no clear pathway to permanent housing can leave people trapped in a cycle of instability.

At ACPS, we believe everyone deserves more than a roof over their head. With the right housing and wraparound support, people can rebuild their lives with dignity, safety, and hope.

Do you know the changes coming into effect on 1 November?

The new Support at Home program will replace Home Care Packages (HCP) and Short-Term Restorative Care (STRC), with the aim of helping older Australians live independently at home for longer.

What does this mean for you? Support at Home is designed to give you:
- more flexibility and funding levels to suit individual needs
- better access to assessments and reassessments as your circumstances change
- extra support through restorative care, assistive technology, and home modifications
- end-of-life pathways that allow people to remain at home in their final months.

At ACPS, we know these changes can feel overwhelming. Our role is to guide you through what this means for you or your loved ones, and make sure you feel supported every step of the way.

Get in touch with us if you need help to navigate through the process.

Hoarding disorder affects around 600,000 Australians, and for many older people it brings serious risks, from declining health and isolation to eviction and homelessness.

That’s why our Home Matters: Sustaining Tenancies for Seniors program was created. Going beyond just cleaning homes, we address the root causes — like trauma, cognitive decline, and mental health challenges — while providing compassionate, wraparound support.

The result? Safer homes, restored dignity, and stability for older Australians who might otherwise face homelessness. And healthier, more supported communities too.

Aged care decisions can be overwhelming for families and for the professionals supporting them. We’re so grateful for the kind words of partners like these, who trust us to guide their clients through such an important transition.

At ACPS, it’s never about ‘just a place.’ It’s about finding the right care environment with compassion and care.

Ageism has real impacts when we make decisions about aged care. Unfortunately, we often see this across our industry and we actively work against these assumptions.

When aged care decisions are driven by stereotypes and paternalistic thinking rather than real needs, people can lose their independence and agency prematurely. Challenging ageism and tired narratives means giving older Australians more say and control over their future.

Have you ever seen ageism play out in decisions made about your loved ones or people you care for? Let us know in the comments below.

Last year, we helped 129 people find a safe and permanent place to call home. 🏠

Through our Senior Homelessness Prevention program, we work alongside older Australians experiencing or at risk of homelessness. While temporary accommodation can provide immediate relief, it’s only long-term housing that truly restores security, stability, and dignity.

This is the heart of why we do what we do — helping people find a home that’s forever, not just for a while.

Our work is rooted in collaborative care. This means designing with you, not for you. We value diverse voices and your lived experience: in the end, you are the expert in your own life.

Many of our clients have been turned away from traditional help services, and might have had negative experiences in seeking help in the past. We’re confident that there are always options worth exploring, and we’re determined to find them.

We’re excited to introduce to you the latest addition to the ACPS care team – meet our Occupational Therapist, Jackie!

With over 30 years of experience, Jackie brings a wealth of knowledge, skill, and compassion to her work as an OT. For the past 25+ years, she has been a cornerstone in Community Health, where she’s supported countless individuals in regaining independence, adapting to new challenges, and living life to the fullest.

Jackie’s career highlights include developing personalised treatment plans, conducting home and patient assessments, and working with other teams to provide the best care possible. She’s also played mentored junior therapists, providing education to community health staff, and sharing her expertise at professional forums.

Beyond her impressive clinical expertise, she’s known for her warmth, compassion, and dedication. We are so grateful for Jackie’s expertise, leadership, and positivity — she truly embodies the heart of occupational therapy.

Did you know hoarding is a recognised mental illness? It’s often misunderstood as simply ‘being messy,’ but the reality is far more complex. Hoarding and squalor can stem from trauma, mental health conditions, or physical challenges — and they need sensitive, long-term support, not quick fixes.

During our work, we’ve seen that compassion and understanding go further than judgement. With the right care, people can regain safety, dignity, and control of their home environment. We’ve seen amazing success stories in our years of work.
Scroll through to bust some myths around this complex condition.

They have spent their lives raising families, working, and contributing to the community — now they’re facing homelessness.

We show up to work every day because we believe every older Australian deserves better: to spend their later years feeling safe, supported, and connected. ❤️

If there’s one principle that guides everything we do, it’s dignity. So how does it show up in our work?

It’s in the way we listen first, before offering solutions. It’s in giving our clients control over decisions that affect their homes and care. It’s in respecting their routines, preferences, and life experiences, even when change is necessary. And it’s giving our clients space for the range of emotions that come with ageing and needing more support.

Our goal is simple: to make sure older Australians feel valued, supported, and in control of their lives, regardless of the level of help they need. Too many aged care options are planned for the short-term and without considering everyone’s unique circumstances: it’s our goal to create long-term sustainable solutions that allow our clients to imagine a hopeful and positive future.
