If you qualify for support

If you have eligible needs, we will work with you to find out how you would like your needs to be met and provide you with a choice of support options.

Care and support plan

We will work with you to develop a care and support plan. Your plan will show how your eligible needs will be met. We will support you to organise the right care and support services to achieve the goals in your plan.

Financial assessment

We will do a financial assessment with you to look at how much you may need to contribute to the costs of your care. There are many ways to pay for care and support. We'll talk to you about your options after the financial assessment.
