  • Understand Gov. Subsidies - The government subsidises many Aged Care services in order to keep costs as affordable as possible. There are government subsidies available for both Home Care and in an Aged Care Home. Learn More
  • Getting Assessed - Whether you are seeking Support at Home Package Support or entering an Aged Care Home, the first step toward finding out exactly what you're eligible for is to register with My Aged Care. Learn More
  • Support at Home - Support at Home offers choice and flexibility. They're consumer-directed, which means you can use the funds the way you want! Choose the services you want to help you stay safely in your home. Learn More
  • Aged Care Homes - An Aged Care Home is a place for people who don't need to be in a hospital but can't be cared for at home. Aged Care Homes or Nursing Homes are normally the highest level of care outside a hospital. Learn More

The CareAbout team was thorough

The CareAbout team was thorough and very helpful with matching my dad with the right care provider. They asked a number of questions in relation to my dad and what care he would require moving forward. Would recommend CareAbout if you're looking into a care provider or wanting to change care providers.

CareAbout made it so easy to find a nursing home

I was desperately looking for a nursing home that can provide respite care for my dad. Thankfully CareAbout has made it so easy. With just a few phone calls in the morning I was given a list of the suitable nursing homes, and in the afternoon I was able to find one that can accept my dad. Thank you for a great service!

Absolutely outstanding help and support

To be honest I didn’t expect much from CareAbout as I thought it would be an online only support, however my expectations were soon exceeded with the quality of help, support and continuous phone call follow ups to make sure I found an aged care facility for my dad. Billy made the process so easy and took the stress out of finding a suitable aged care facility.
