The Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) is a Commonwealth program that funds services for older people to live independently in their homes and communities, and respite services to give carers a break. The program aims to: help people live as independently as possible; work with them, rather than doing things for them, and give a small amount of help to a large number of people.

LINK helps you get the best out of your CHSP eligibility, delivering quality services directly, in combination with other service, other support, and links to health services, community programs and other support.

Home Care Packages are a Commonwealth program to deal with your higher care needs, where consumers have more control over who delivers the care and services that best benefit your health and wellbeing needs at home and in the community.

There are four different tiers of Home Care Packages (HCP) available for basic, low, intermediate or high care, with amounts allocated on the basis of an assessment by an Aged Care Assessment Team service (ACAT).

Self-funded should not mean unsupported. People may be self-funded because they are not eligible for certain programs, and, quite commonly, because they do not need to, or want to rely on public funding.

Much of the mainstream health, disability and aged care system is designed around getting services for disadvantaged people who cannot afford to pay,

Ironically, the design of the system means that self-funded clients have a huge battle to get the support they need to support their independent wellbeing at home – even though they can afford to pay.

Self-funded clients deserve the very best advice, guidance and service to help them live well and independently at home, and stay connected to services and community.

Self-funded clients should still be offered classes, outings, social opportunities, fit-for-purpose assisted transport, an ability to get to family and community functions, and all of the things that contribute to being able to live your best life.

LINK is here to help.

There are many many other forms of support available in the community that do not necessarily take the form of funding programs.

LINK will help identify, meet eligibility requirements and engage you with all of the different services and support that can help you live your best life.
