About

As an approved Home Care Package provider in the ACT and NSW, CRCS provides a range of in-home and social support services that enable people in our community to live independently in their own home environment for longer.

Our philosophy is simple: you know what’s best for you, our job is to make sure you get it.

Our team of professionals not only have the experience and knowledge to deliver a high-quality service, but they also bring with them a unique, community-sector perspective to the job, which means that identifying needs through in-person consultations and feedback and designing creative solutions to meet those needs come naturally to them. It’s this level of training and expertise that we depend on to co-design a Home Care Package suited to your needs.

“People get to choose the services that reflect their needs and we can help them navigate the system.

“People’s needs can change from month-to-month, so we want to make sure that what they access is still relevant. Our whole approach to co-designing a plan is constantly putting the client at the centre and giving them every opportunity to decide what they want instead of prescribing things to them…”

 – CRCS Age Care Program Manager

So, why not talk to our friendly team today to discuss how we can co-design your Home Care Package Services in consultation with you, so that you can continue to live the life you choose to live.

Eligibility

Eligibility is based on your care needs as determined through a face-to-face assessment via the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT). For more information please go to myagedcare.gov.au

You must also be:

• An older person who needs coordinated services to help them stay at home or;
• A young person with a disability, dementia or other care needs not met through other specialist services.

Your financial situation won’t affect your eligibility, however you will need a financial assessment to work out how much you may be asked to contribute.

If you think you only need a low level of support you may be better suited for help through the Commonwealth Home Support Programme.
