Care Partner

You’ll have your own Care Partner.

Your Care Partner will:

  • help you create a care plan that suits your goals
  • organise your support, including medical and allied health professionals; and
  • support you to manage your health and wellbeing.

You’ll also be supported by our Scheduling Team:

They will:

  • make sure your care plan is delivered; and
  • adjust your support if your needs change or if a team member is away.

How can we support you at home?

The goal of Support at Home is to help you stay independent and continue doing the things that matter to you – all from the familiar surrounds of your own home.

Anglicare offers a wide range of services. This means we can keep supporting you even if your needs change.

Here’s how we can help:

  • Personal care – support to help you look and feel your best.
  • Social support and community engagement – help you to join in activities and stay connected with people in your community.
  • Domestic assistance – help you with household tasks that may now be hard to do on your own.
  • Other services – arrange services from other suppliers such as gardening, allied health and meal delivery.
  • Nursing  – check your health needs, create a care plan and give clinical care when needed.
  • At-home respite support – we offer short-term support at home so carers can take a break and rest.
  • End-of-life pathway – we offer extra care and support for people nearing the end of life, so they can stay in their home for as long as possible.

More about Support at Home

Support at home funding levels

The government has eight Support at Home funding levels. After your assessment, you’re allocated an amount of funding within your level. This amount will fall somewhere between the full-service amount and the minimum service offer (MSO), which is 60% of the full-service amount. Keep in mind that 10% of your budget is set aside for your service provider to manage your care. Your care partner (such as Anglicare) will then work with you to plan and coordinate your services within the remaining budget.
