Private Care Services

You can access our home care services on a private, fee-paying basis and there’s no waiting list and no need for an assessment.

Many people use private home care services, which can be used for:

• short-term care while your family or carer is away
• help getting back on your feet after a fall or returning home from hospital
• support while you are waiting for an assessment or for government-subsidised care services to begin
• some extra help on top of your government-subsidised care through additional services or hours of care
• support if you are not eligible for government-subsidised care.
