A LITTLE SUPPORT CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE

Are you over 65 and interested in joining some social activities in the community, or perhaps you just need a little extra help around the home?

CHSP provides affordable, government-funded support to help you stay independent, active and connected while living in your own home.

Steps to Starting CHSP

1.

Contact My Aged Care.
 

Get in touch with My Aged Care to register and arrange an assessment to understand your needs and what support you may be eligible for.

2.

Have your Assessment.

An assessor will talk with you about how you’re managing at home, what’s important to you and the areas where you may need some extra support.

3.

Receive your approval.

If you're approved for CHSP services, you'll receive information about the support you can access.

4.

Choose your provider.

Once you’ve been approved for CHSP, you can choose a provider like BCR Communities to deliver and co-ordinate your care.

Not sure where to start? Simply contact BCR Communities and one of our friendly team can help you understand the process and what to do next.

How much does CHSP cost?

CHSP is subsidised by the Australian Government to help make support more affordable. You may be asked to make a contribution towards the cost of your services, depending on the support you receive.

Contact BCR today to find out more about how we can support you at home

“Everyone at BCR Communities has just been so helpful. They make you feel like you are important to them. A lot of groups make you feel like you are just a number but not them. It actually makes me tearful when I think about how lovely they are.”
