Support At Home has changed the way the home care system works for anyone now entering the system to receive home care funding.
It has naturally sparked lots of questions about what’s different, what will remain the same and how will it impact people’s care at home.
Some key changes include:
- More fudnding to help keep people well and living independently at home for longer
- Additional funding for assistive technology and home modifications
- Co-payment required for services for most people, even full pensioners
To help make it easier we’ve pulled together a factsheet on Ythe most common questions about Support at Home in an easy-to-read factsheet.
It includes topics like how much funding is available, what services are covered, what you may need to pay under the new co-contribution scheme and much more.
