Home Care Packages
RSL LifeCare at Home
Home Care Packages support you to live independently in your home and community.
Home Care Packages are tailored to suit you which means you can use your package to achieve your goals and live the lifestyle you’re looking for.
There are four levels of Home Care Package to meet different levels of needs, from Basic (Level 1) to High (Level 4).
Your package is individually tailored to your needs and priorities. This allows you, the customer, to choose the kind of assistance you want, determine how the funding in your package is spent, and change your choices if and when you choose.
What services can I choose for a Home Care Package?
The support you need and the things you enjoy are our top priority, so you’ll find a great variety of activities and services to include in your Home Care Package. There’s social outings, yoga and aqua aerobics, transport, cleaning and housekeeping, lawns and gardening, nursing and allied health, pet care and so much more for you to choose.
How is the cost of a Home Care Package covered?
The Australian Government subsidises the cost of many of the services offered in a HCP. Customers are asked to make a co-payment as well. The co-payment is made up of a basic daily fee and/or income-tested care fee. Therefore the level of individual contribution may vary.
