Home Care Packages
A home care package is an Australian government funded coordinated package of care and services to help you to live independently in your own home for as long as you can. Services are available for anyone over the age of 65 years (50 years or more for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people) with a medical condition which has caused a change in your ability to perform activities or remember things.
In order to access services you will need to contact my My Aged Care for assistance who will then arrange for an assessment service to meet with you. In order to be a recipient of a home care package you will need to be assessed, approved and then allocated one of the following levels:
​
-
Level 1 - basic care needs
-
Level 2 - low-level care needs
-
Level 3 - intermediate care needs
-
Level 4 - high-level care needs
We recommend that you prepare for your assessment meeting in advance and please feel free to contact us for further support and guidance.
Collaborative Care
Most of us are private people who are reluctant to have strangers in our home. We respect your wishes and understand how special the sanctuary of your home is to you.
It is common for seniors to not want to ask for help. However, as people get older it is not unusual to need some help and support as certain activities and tasks can become a bit more difficult.
​
Affinity Senior Care is different to most other providers because our client’s have a registered nurse who is your Clinical Partner and really gets to know you, conducts clinical assessments, safety checks, risk and hazard assessments, understands your health, needs, goals wishes and preferences.
Affinity Senior Care services offer many benefits which allow seniors to stay in their own comfortable and familiar surroundings for as long as possible. Please contac us and we will send you more information about how our fully managed service can make a real difference!
