This government funding option is a Home Care Package (HCP), which covers more complex needs, and is recommended for when ongoing or comprehensive care is required. HCP can be an option if you need a coordinated approach in the delivery of your home care services, especially if you need help with everyday tasks.  

There are also four levels of funding:

• Basic
  
• Low-level
  
• Intermediate, and
  
• High 
  

Services supplied for HCP recipients are provided by what’s known as a Home Care Provider of which there are over 900 Home Care Providers to choose from in Australia, so this is where it can get a bit tricky!

"With the oxygen and showering, we've learnt to go slow so it doesn't drop too low.  We know to do that now so I feel safe.  And they always ask me how I would like things done.  I am so happy with my Carers.  They are perfect! I wouldn't want to change a thing."
