Finding the right aged care provider
If you've been assessed and are eligible for government-funded aged care services, the next step is to find a provider.
The 'Find a Provider' tool on the My Aged Care website can help you find a local provider who meets your needs.
The tool can help you:
-
Discover local providers -- search by location or provider name and type of care needed to explore your options.
-
Check quality -- view Star Ratings for aged care homes and compliance information.
-
Understand costs -- see information about provider charges and financial performance. This includes information about the finances and operations of aged care homes and Home Care Package providers.
-
Shortlist and compare - save your preferred providers and compare them side by side.
-
Find specialised care - find a provider offering verified specialised care services for people with diverse backgrounds and life experiences.
By using the 'Find a Provider' tool, you can make informed decisions about your care and find the right provider to support your needs and preferences.
