The Support at Home program introduces a new approach to home care, designed to make services simpler, clearer, and easier to access. It replaces the Home Care Package system and introduces quarterly budgets, clearer funding guidelines, and faster access to assistive technology and home modifications.
Participants now contribute to services through a per-service co-contribution depending on the type of support they receive, with rates determined by Services Australia.
At Dovida, our local team works alongside patients and health professionals to help people understand their funding, navigate the new system, and access personalised care that supports independence and wellbeing at home.
