💚 We’re so excited to see our friends at Virtually Accountable stepping into a new chapter! 💚

For nearly a decade, they’ve been a trusted support for NDIS participants, and now they’re extending that same care and expertise to those navigating My Aged Care. Their new Care Coordination division will be a game-changer for people with self-managed Home Care Packages — making sure more people feel confident, connected, and well-supported.

At Compassion Care Crew, we’ve always admired the heart and dedication the VA team brings to their work, and we’re thrilled to see them continue growing their impact. 💫

Congrats, team VA — we’re cheering you on every step of the way! 👏💚

🌿 A New Chapter for Virtually Accountable 🌿

For almost a decade, we’ve been walking alongside NDIS participants, helping them to understand, set up, and get the most out of their NDIS supports. It’s been our privilege to be part of so many journeys, and that won’t be changing.

What is changing is that we’re opening our arms a little wider. We’re excited to share that we will now also be supporting people through My Aged Care with our new Care Coordination division. This means our experienced team can assist those with Home Care Packages to connect with services and feel confident in using their HCP funding.

At Virtually Accountable, our heart has always been in supporting people through life’s transitions — big and small. In the coming weeks and months, you may notice some updates to our social media and website as we reflect this new chapter.

What won’t change is the team you know and trust. Our Support Coordination and Plan Management services remain the same — we’re simply adding new skills to help even more people feel supported and connected.

Connect with our team today on 0439 792 881 to see how we can support you on your My Aged Care journey.

🌼 Standing Together on Daffodil Day 🌼

Today we proudly support the Cancer Council’s Daffodil Day – a day that shines a light on hope, research, and the strength of community. 💛

The daffodil reminds us all that no matter the challenges, there is always the chance for new beginnings and brighter days ahead.

At CCC, we believe in building a community where everyone feels supported, connected, and cared for. That’s why we’re standing with the Cancer Council today – to honour those impacted by cancer and to help fund the research and services that change lives.

💛 How you can get involved:
🌼 Wear yellow or a daffodil today
🌼 Donate to support cancer research and services
🌼 Share your message of hope with family and friends

Together, we can grow a future filled with hope. 🌼✨
