How to Live at Home for Longer: Free Information Session

As we get older, our needs change, but our desire to remain living independently in our own home often stays the same. To help you understand the options available, Prahran Place is hosting an important information session in partnership with LaTrobe Community Health.

This session will explain how to access government funding and support programs designed to make life easier and safer at home. Whether it’s a little extra help with cleaning, gardening, transport, personal care, or social activities, there are services available to keep you comfortable and connected in your own community.

What the session will cover:

  • The Commonwealth Home Support program
  • Eligibility and how to apply
  • What services are available
  • Costs and subsidies
  • How to choose the right Provider
  • Other government-supported programs

You’ll also have the chance to speak directly with representatives, ask questions, and receive practical assistance if you need help applying online. Every attendee will take home a handy information pack for future reference.
