CARE PROVIDERS AND HEALTH SERVICES
There are many different types of aged care providers and health services available to support you, whatever your needs. Some services can be accessed at any time for a fee and others require an assessment from a government agency to determine what level of support is required and what can be funded.
Any Australian over the age of 65 years is able to access Commonwealth subsidised aged care. There are conditions assigned to the provision of aged care along with varied co-payment provisions.
Note: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples may access services and support from fifty years of age.
There are three levels of aged care services and support available from aged care providers who receive funding to deliver services through the Australian Government.
The three levels are:
- The Commonwealth Home Support Programm
- Home Care Packages
- Residential Aged Care Homes
The services listed in this Directory are members of the Sunshine Coast Healthy Ageing Partnership network.
