Changes coming to in-home aged care

Support at Home is the Australian Government’s new in-home aged care program starting from 1 November this year. It’s designed to help you stay independent and live in your own home for longer.
Support at Home will simplify in-home aged care by replacing the Home Care Packages and Short Term Restorative Care programs. The Commonwealth Home Support Program will join Support at Home no earlier than 1 July 2027.
Support at Home is part of the new Aged Care Act, which puts older people at the centre of aged care. The new Act will make aged care safer, fairer and more respectful.
Support at Home will make it easier to get the help you need to remain at home – for things like cleaning, gardening, shopping, nursing care and physiotherapy. Products, equipment and home modifications can also be purchased for support with daily tasks. There are ongoing services as well as 3 pathways for short-term periods of care.

Short-term pathways
1. The Restorative Care Pathway helps you improve or regain your ability to do everyday tasks after an age-related illness or injury.
2. The End-of-Life Pathway gives extra support (such as personal care, domestic assistance and nursing care) for those who wish to spend their final months at home.
3. The Assistive Technology and Home Modifications scheme provides equipment and changes to your home to make it safer and easier for daily living. Moving to Support at Home
If you already receive a Home Care Package, you won’t need a new assessment. Your provider will help you move to Support at Home and update your care plan.
