Aged care support
If you are an older Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person, you may be eligible for aged care. We can help you access and find culturally safe aged care services
Aged care services can help you stay at home longer and can include support for cleaning, cooking, bathing, social activities, gardening, and transport for shopping and appointments.
If eligible, you can also access ageing support equipment like wheelchairs, shower chairs, and walking aids, as well as specific home safety modifications.
Aged care service delivery can also extend to residential care support, if your health needs increase.
