Department of Veteran Affairs - DVA Home Care

​

Southern Highlands Home Care offers our services to DVA clients. DVA Home Care is a care program designed to enable eligible veterans, war widows and widowers to remain in their own home as long as they are able to with a little support. A little support refers to low-level support services provided on a short-term or ongoing basis, or increased intensity on a short-term or episodic basis. Services designed to maintain your health, well being and independence.

Government Funded Packages

​

A Home Care Package is a subsidy provided by the Australian Government to assist an older person to remain at home with support. Clients are assessed by an ACAS (Aged Care Assessment Service) on their needs and are approved for  a package in one of four levels. Southern Highlands Home Care offers services to levels 2,3 and 4.

Packages are flexible, allowing you to choose the services you require most. Some clients use both funded packages and private services if their level of care is greater then funded. Click here to find out more about Packages.
