What you need to know/prepare

When you are starting your journey to accessing Government funded aged care services, you will need to have an aged care assessment to check your eligibility.

These assessments are free for older people and are a vital stepping stone on your way to accessing care at home, in your community or moving into an aged care home.

This section helps you to be prepared for the whole assessment and application process when applying for aged care and looks at other considerations when getting ready to start aged care supports.
