A Home Care Package Level 3 is designed for older Australians who need intermediate-level care. It’s perfect for those who require more substantial assistance with daily activities than Level 2, but aren’t in need of the highest level of care provided by Level 4.
This package offers a comprehensive range of services to help individuals live as independently as possible while receiving the necessary support. Whether it’s help with personal care, nursing services, or access to social and community activities, Level 3 Home Care provides the flexibility and support required to maintain a high quality of life at home.
Eligibility for Home Care Package Level 3
To qualify for a Home Care Package Level 3, you must meet certain criteria, which are assessed by My Aged Care:
- Age Requirement: You must be 65 years or older (or 50 years or older for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people).
- Care Needs: You must require intermediate-level care for tasks such as personal care, house cleaning, managing health conditions, and participating in community activities.
- Aged Care Assessment: You must complete an Aged Care Assessment through My Aged Care. The assessment evaluates your ability to carry out daily tasks and determines if Level 3 is appropriate for you.
If you are eligible, Level 3 Home Care will provide the additional support needed to maintain your independence at home while offering comprehensive assistance with more complex care needs.
