Mar 1, 2024 | NAVIGATING AGED CARE

Aged care can be difficult to navigate – especially if you’re not even sure where to start!

If you find yourself struggling, you may consider engaging one of many aged care organisations, agencies, consultants, and brokers that assist families through the process.

This article outlines how these services may be able to help you.

Government Services – My Aged Care

Government organisation My Aged Care has a team of Customer Service Officers and Aged Care Specialist Officers who can assist families by:

  • connecting you to local support services.
