Ageing Services in Tablelands
What Is This?
Ageing services in Australia aim to support older individuals in maintaining their independence, health, and quality of life. These services offer assistance in areas such as home care, residential care, health services, social support, and recreation.
How Is It Funded?
How much does it cost: Funding for social and recreational programs are usually self-funded by individuals or partially funded. Other supports can be funded (partially or fully) through government agencies.
How To Access?
Access for social and recreational programs is through contacting the service directly or via referral. Occasionally access to ageing supports involves assessment by an application process and/or allied health team. Information and referrals are available through designated government agencies.
