It all starts with a conversation.
Let’s have a discussion about how we can help, or if you would like support to access My Aged Care, please contact us.
We are a registered provider for Home Care Packages.
If you have more complex needs, you may be able to access a Home Care Package to help you stay at home for longer with coordinated support from South Burnett Care. We offer a range of services to help you to live independently in your own home for as long as you can by directly providing most services or connecting you with someone who can.
South Burnett Care provides you with a co-designed service agreement and an individualised budget, which means you can decide what services you want and when as well as see exactly what funding is available under the package and how those funds are being spent.
