Watch the in-home aged care update webinar
We held a webinar on 5 December 2024 to update in-home aged care providers on the Single Assessment System, the Support at Home program’s Assistive Technology and Home Modifications (AT-HM) Scheme, and the actions providers need to take to be ready for the Support at Home program ahead of 1 July 2025.
If you missed it, the webinar slides and recording are now available.
Support at Home program handbook
The Support at Home program handbook outlines the core components of the Support at Home program design and arrangements from 1 July 2025.
It has been developed to help in-home aged care providers understand the key changes under the Support at Home program.
