Home Care Packages

Picture

What is a Home Care Package?

Home care is the provision of care and other services to older people in their home. Home care is designed to meet the needs of the older person to allow them to remain living in their home as independently as possible. Home care packages are available to people who need increased support and assistance to remain in their home.
 
​

How do I access a Home Care Package?

To be eligible for a Home care Package, a referral to an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) or Regional Assessment Service (RAS) is necessary. A referral can be made by a health professional or you can contact an ACAT directly. 
​
Once the ACAT or RAS have completed an assessment, an aged care client record (ACCR) will be provided. This document will approve an appropriate level of subsidised home care that the person is eligible to receive.
 

Consumer Directed Care

​We deliver all Home Care Packages using a consumer directed care approach. This means that the consumer has control and can make choices about what services they receive and how those services are delivered. Decisions are made in partnership with IAC Home Care; we can recommend services that promote your well-being and maximise independence, but the consumer will direct which services they receive, how often, and in what manner.
