| Extended Aged Care at Home (EACH) packages are individually planned and coordinated packages of care, tailored to support older people with high level care needs who wish to remain at home.
Funded by the Australian Government, EACH packages are very flexible and designed to help with individual care needs. The types of services that may be provided as part of an EACH package include: • registered nursing care • care by an allied health professional such as a physiotherapist or podiatrist • personal care • transport to appointments • social support • home help Who can access the service? Any person who has been assessed as requiring high level care by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT). Your GP can refer you to the ACAT for your Local Government Area (LGA). Contact details are also available from your local public hospital. We currently provide EACH packages in the Mosman, North Sydney and Willoughby LGAs. |
