A Home Care Package (HCP) is a specialized pool of government funding designed to help older Australians live independently at home for longer. Unlike basic support, an HCP provides a higher level of care that is personalized to your specific health and lifestyle requirements.
At CareLinc, we help you maximize this funding so you can receive more hours of care and better quality services.
CareLinc’s Home Care Packages (HCP) are part of the Australian Government’s commitment to supporting older Australians. This program provides dedicated funds for personalized care and services that make daily life safer and more comfortable.
As an approved provider, CareLinc helps you access and coordinate these supports to ensure you stay independent and prevent physical decline. Our pathway focuses on improving your mobility, safety, and overall quality of life within your own community.
HCP funding covers a wide range of supports—from daily essentials to clinical care. Many items and services can be assessed and prescribed by our in-house clinical team, helping you get exactly what you need quickly and safely.
Clinical & Personal Care: Assistance with showering, dressing, and nursing care provided by professionals who understand your needs.
Assistive Technology: Funding for equipment that makes life easier, such as mobility aids, bathroom equipment, and specialized tools for independence.
Home Modifications: Improvements to your living space, including the installation of handrails, ramps, and other safety modifications.
Daily Living Support: Help with cleaning, laundry, and shopping to maintain your home’s comfort.
Your personalized plan may include:
High-quality tools such as walking frames, specialized chairs, and adaptive devices that support your movement and independence at home.
Consultations with our in-house clinical team to assess your physical needs and prescribe the most effective items for your safety.
Most Members receive Assistive Technology and Home Modifications funding for a 12-month period, which is reviewed based on your ongoing assessed needs.
CareLinc provides a range of solutions designed to make your daily life easier and your home environment safer.
Across our dedicated clinical team, we bring decades of combined expertise spanning nursing, geriatric care, and allied health. This deep reservoir of knowledge allows us to accurately assess, prescribe, and coordinate the specific Assistive Technology and Home Modifications that truly make a difference for each Member. Our approach is always practical, evidence-based, and centered on your individual goals for living safely at home.
Assistive Technology and Home Modifications are most effective when guided by professionals who understand both the person and their living environment. At CareLinc, we combine high-level clinical insight with a deep personal understanding of our Members. This ensures you get the right support at the right time, building the confidence you need to maintain your independence.
“We don’t just look at the home; we look at the life being lived inside it. Our mission is to ensure that your environment supports your freedom, not limits it.”
“People often know what is becoming harder at home, but they don’t always know how to fix it. That’s where we come in translating clinical insight into simple, effective changes that restore confidence and control for our Members.”
