The new program includes:

  • Tougher regulations on home care providers
  • More access to services, equipment and home modifications
  • Reduced wait times for accessing home care
  • More support levels for home care, including earlier access to restorative care and greater support for end-of-life care

Full details are still being finalised by the department of health and ageing. You can read more about the program here.
