Respite care
Options to receive temporary home care for a short duration.
Short term care can be helpful if you primary carer is away or needs a break, if you are recovering from an injury or surgery and much more.
Understanding finance – how much does home care cost?
The size and cost of your home care can depend on:
- Your Government-subsidised contribution
- Your contribution as determined by Government income testing
- The services you wish to receive
- The hours of service you wish to receive
- Your basic daily care fee
- Your hardship supplement (if applicable)
- And potentially other factors.
Because of these factors, there is no one-size-fits-all price that can be applied to everyone. However, if you’re interested in private services, we can provide you with a quote based on your needs.
