Aged Care Services in the Surf Coast
Quality care that helps you stay independent at home. Same caring support workers, flexible services, and 24/7 support when you need it.
Aged Care Geelong - Quality Home Care Services
Getting older doesn't mean giving up your independence. Our aged care services Surf Coast families trust help you stay comfortable and safe in your own home for as long as possible. Whether you need a little help with housework or comprehensive daily care, we provide reliable support that fits your routine and respects your choices.
Our experienced care team understands that every person ages differently. We work with you to create a care plan that meets your needs today and adapts as those needs change. Most importantly, you'll have the same trusted care workers who get to know you, your preferences, and your home.
How Aged Care Works in Australia
Aged care services help older Australians continue living independently when daily tasks become more challenging. These services are partially funded by the Australian Government through Home Care Packages and other programs.
To access government-funded aged care, you'll need an assessment through My Aged Care (1800 200 422). This free assessment determines what level of support you're eligible for and helps match you with the right services.
You don't need to wait for an assessment to start - we also provide private aged care services that you can begin immediately.
