Support at Home will commence on 1st November. There are lots of changes and one significant change is that the dementia supplement will no longer exist under Support at Home.
Under Home Care Packages, the dementia supplement provides an additional 11.5% of funding to those with dementia, recognising that the needs to support someone at home with dementia are greater.
Under Support at Home, with funding available increased to $78 000, the increased needs are covered in your classification, not in a supplement.
For those currently recieving a Home Care Package, the current funding amount will continue under Support at Home. If you have the dementia supplement, the value of this will continue as well.
If you have a current Home Care Package, have dementia and are not recieving the dementia supplement, you have until the end of October to apply to access this additional funding.
