The Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) delivers the entry-level tier of support and is designed to provide a relatively small amount of care and support to frail older people to help them to remain living at home and in their communities.
The Program Manual documents the operational requirements of CHSP. It also forms part of a funded organisations Grant Agreement.
Current Commonwealth Home Support Programme Manual and changes can be found here.
The Good Practice Guide is intended to complement the CHSP Programme Manual and support the take up of wellness approaches in home care services.
The Aged Care Roadmap has been developed by the Aged Care Sector Committee to outline what is required to realise a sustainable, consumer-led aged care market, where consumers have increased choice and control of what care and support they receive, as well as where, how and when they receive it.
My Aged Care is the entry point for older Australians to access aged care.
Support material and quick reference information is available to help service providers use the My Aged Care provider portal.
Each organisation should have at least one Administrator.
