What services am I eligible for?
Home Care Packages
Resthaven’s Home Care Packages are approved through My Aged Care. The Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) will assess and approve services for each individual.
Referrals for an ACAT assessment can be made by older people, their carers, family members, health professionals or community service providers.
Contact Resthaven on 1300 13 66 33 to request an ACAT assessment through our facilitated referral service.

Anyone over 60 is eligible to receive Lifestyle Choices Plus services in their home. This is a private service individually-tailored and designed to support you on an affordable fee-for-service basis. This means you can receive services without having to wait for an assessment.
