Looking for an easier way to understand Home Care Package (HCP) options for yourself or a loved one? Ozcare’s Home Care Package Calculator is a valuable tool to help you make well-informed decisions.
This guide will take you through the benefits of using the calculator, providing insights into how it can assist in planning for your home care needs.
Understanding Home Care Packages
A Home Care Package is an Australian government-funded program that provides coordinated care and services to help seniors live independently at home. Services include cleaning, meal preparation, transport, healthcare support and much more. There are four levels of Home Care Packages, ranging from Level 1 to Level 4, based on the level of care needed. Eligibility is determined through assessment by the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT), which evaluates physical, medical, and social needs, prioritising those with higher care requirements.
Ozcare is committed to empowering seniors to live independently by providing support and a safe and secure plan for when circumstances change.
