Some changes to Aged Care are happening on 1 November 2025. The Support at Home program will replace Home Care Packages and Short-Term Restorative Care programs. If you have or were approved for a Home Care Package on or before 12 September 2024, you’re covered by the ‘no worse off’ principle. If you need help to stay at home longer, there are new rules that set out what you have to pay. See the link in the comments for more 👇 | Services Australia

The new Aged Care Act begins on 1 November 2025. It puts older people at the centre of their care. It gives them the right to make decisions, feel safe and connect with their community. The new system will be stronger, safer and fairer for everyone. If you or a loved one is receiving aged care, you don’t need to do anything. Your care will continue, and you will only need a re-assessment when your needs change. For more information, check the comments below. 👇 | Australian Government Department
