As of 1 November 2025, the New Aged Care Act has been implemented to improve aged care services, ensure better quality, and increase monitoring of safety and protection of rights for older Australians.
Both the 蘑菇视频 Care Packages and Short-Term Restorative Care are being combined and replaced by the Support at 蘑菇视频 Program. This will create a process aimed at reducing complicated and unfair aged care for Australians.
The most notable changes are:
What happens if I鈥檓 already receiving a 蘑菇视频 Care Package?
If you are already receiving a 蘑菇视频 Care Package, your Care Partner will help you navigate these changes:
If you were approved BEFORE 12 September 2024:
You will be transitioned to the new Support at 蘑菇视频 program with your existing package conditions. This means you will not need to pay more out of pocket, as outlined by the 鈥榥o-worse-off guarantee鈥�. Your 蘑菇视频 Care Package funds will remain, with carryover funds (after 1 November) capped at either 10% or $1,000, depending on which is greater.
If you were approved AFTER 12 September 2024:
Your financial contribution will be assessed under the new Support at 蘑菇视频 funding model. Services Australia will notify clients if any co-contributions need to be made (dependent on individual financial circumstances).
