Support at Home short-term pathways

Support at Home includes several short-term pathways designed to support specific needs.
Contact us
Short-term support options through Support at Home:
Gardening
Restorative Care helps you regain independence after illness or a decline in health.
Aged Care
Assistive Technology and Home Modifications can provide funding for equipment and home modifications, like walkers and rails.
Home Care
The End-of-Life Pathway provides additional support to help you remain at home in your final months.

How do I access these supports?

Each pathway is designed for a specific situation and must be linked to your assessed needs. To access short-term support, you'll need a My Aged Care assessment, which helps determine the services and funding that may be right for you.

Depending on your circumstances, you may be recommended for Restorative Care, Assistive Technology and Home Modifications, or the End-of-Life Pathway. If you're unsure which supports may be available to you, VMCH can help you understand your options and navigate the assessment process.
