Great News: 40,000 New Home Care Packages Are Being Released!

| Government Announcements

Have you heard the latest? The Australian Government has announced a massive release of 40,000 new Home Care Packages (HCPs) to support older Australians at home.

  • 20,000 packages will be made available before 1 November 2025

  • An additional 20,000 will be released by 31 December 2025

This announcement is a critical step in improving access to aged care and helping more people live safely, comfortably, and independently in their own homes.


If You’re One of the Lucky Ones — We’re Ready to Start Your Services!

If you’ve received confirmation that your Home Care Package has been approved, congratulations! You can now begin arranging the services that suit your needs — whether that’s personal care, domestic assistance, nursing, transport, or even companionship and social support.

Right at Home is an approved Home Care Package provider and we’re here to help you make the most of your funding. We’ll help you understand your budget, prioritise your care needs, and build a tailored plan that respects your preferences and lifestyle.

Call us today to schedule a free in-home consultation or speak with a care coordinator near you.


Still Waiting? We Can Start Private Services Today

If you’re still on the national waitlist but find yourself needing support now, you don’t have to wait. Many clients choose to begin services with private pay and seamlessly transition to a government-funded package when it’s assigned.

We’ll keep your care consistent — same team, same routines — and ensure a smooth switch as soon as your package is ready. Plus, we can help guide you through the next steps and keep you informed.


Why This Matters

With demand for aged care services continuing to rise, this package release is an important step to address delays and improve outcomes for older Australians. Whether you’re ready to get started or just need advice, Right at Home is here to help.
