Support at Home program is Coming

The Australian Government’s new Support at Home program will launch on 1 November 2025, bringing important changes to the way older Australians access and receive in home aged care services.

This new program is designed to simplify the current system, improve access to services, and provide more flexibility and choice for people who want to continue living independently at home. As a result, existing Home Care Packages and related services will transition into the new Support at Home model.

If you are currently receiving Capecare’s in home aged care services, or if you are exploring your care options for the future, it’s completely natural to have questions about what these changes mean for you, your services, and your ongoing support. You may be wondering how funding will work, whether your current care can continue, or what steps—if any—you need to take.

To help make this transition as smooth and stress-free as possible, we have created a practical and easy-to-understand guide. This guide explains what the Support at Home program is, what’s changing, what’s staying the same, and how you can continue to access the care and services you need to live safely, comfortably, and confidently at home.
