Our home care services in Tweed Heads

Every care plan starts with a conversation, because no two households need the same thing. These are the services our Tweed Heads clients draw on most.

Personal care

Help with showering, dressing, grooming and mobility, delivered with dignity and without rushing.

Domestic assistance

The practical work that keeps a home safe and comfortable: cleaning, laundry, shopping and meal preparation.

In home nursing

Clinical care from registered nurses, including medication management, wound care and chronic condition support, delivered at home rather than in a clinic.

Companionship and community access

Someone to share a cup of tea with, and support to get to appointments, the shops or a local club.

Respite care

Short term support that gives family carers a genuine break, whether that is a few hours a week or a longer stretch.

Dementia and specialist support

Consistent, familiar care for people living with dementia or cognitive change, built around routine.

Home care funding and what it costs

Government funded home care comes through the Support at Home program. What you contribute depends on an assessment of your circumstances rather than a fixed price list, which is why no honest provider can quote you a single number up front.

If you have not been assessed yet, that is the first step, and we can walk you through it. Full details of pricing and inclusions for this office are on our services page.

Common questions about home care in Tweed Heads

How much does home care cost in Tweed Heads?

There is no single price, because Support at Home works on an assessed contribution rather than a flat fee. Your contribution depends on your income and assets as assessed by Services Australia, and the rest is covered by your funding. The clearest way to find out where you stand is to have the assessment done, and we can explain what the result means for you.

How do I choose the right home care provider?

Ask three things. Will the same carer come each visit, or a different person each time. What happens after hours and on weekends. And what the provider charges in fees on top of the care itself, because that is what decides how many hours of actual care your funding buys. Any provider should be able to answer all three plainly, and you are entitled to ask before you commit to anything.

What happens if I cannot afford to contribute?

Nobody is turned away from government funded home care because of their financial situation. Contributions are assessed on income and assets, and there are hardship provisions for people who genuinely cannot pay. If money is the thing stopping you from asking for help, tell us, because it is a more common conversation than most families expect.

What is the difference between home care and residential aged care?

Home care supports someone in their own home. Residential aged care means moving into a facility, and it is assessed and funded differently. Most people we speak to want to stay where they are, and home care exists to make that possible for as long as it safely can be. Right at Home provides in home care only.
