Let’s talk about aged care in the home – consumer information sessions
18 Feb 2025
The Department of Health and Aged Care, Northern Territory Office team have scheduled a series of information sessions on Commonwealth funded in-home aged care supporting older people to stay independent and at home for longer.
This is an invitation for older people, families, and carers to learn about the upcoming changes to in-home aged care.
The information sessions will provide a summary of upcoming changes to aged care including details on the new Aged Care Act, commencing 1 July 2025, and an overview of the new Support at Home program that will replace the Home Care Packages Program and the Short-Term Restorative Care (STRC) Program from 1 July 2025.
