About this support

Care that begins with listening.

The right equipment or a thoughtful change to your home can make a meaningful difference to safety and independence. This may include mobility equipment, personal safety technology or accessibility improvements.

The Support at Home Assistive Technology and Home Modifications scheme provides separate funding based on assessed needs. We can help you understand the process and coordinate approved supports.

The services available to you will depend on your aged care assessment, approved support plan, needs and budget.
