Home Care Services

Active Community Group provides helpful and affordable personal care services and domestic assistance to support the seniors in their own homes and local community. Active Community Group charges a minimum Package Management Fee (previously Administration Fee) and optional Care Management Fee to ensure our consumers have several choices to enjoy most of the home care package funds.  Make sure the services to suit their care needs. 

Your Home Care Package funds should be used for care and services that meet your care needs and medical conditions to keep you active and independent at home.  Your care needs are set out in your My Aged Care support plan and your annual care plan.  We would discuss with you about your care needs and goals when developing your personalised care plan and budget plan which forms part of your Home Care Agreement.

1. well and independent – including personal care, nursing services, allied health
2. safe in their home – including cleaning, home maintenance and minor modifications, assistive technology
3. connected to their community – including transport, social support services.
