Aged Care Advice

Australia’s population is ageing at a rapid rate and as a result more Australians will be relying on Aged Care Facilities in the later stage of their lives.

The Aged Care System along with the effects that your decision will have on any Centrelink /Social Security benefits is an extremely complex area that needs careful planning and consideration.

Our professional team can provide advice on:

• All available options for Aged and Community Care Facilities – Nursing Homes, Hostels, Granny Flats and Retirement Villages and the differences between them.
• The fees and charges system for Aged Care and how to get the best result for your situation.
• What happens to the family home and does it need to be sold?
• How the income and assets are assessed for Centrelink / Social Security purposes upon entry.
