Just better care
Commonwealth Home Support Program vs Support at Home
8 May 2026 in Aged Care
Australia's in-home aged care system looks different in 2026. Support at Home replaced Home Care Packages on 1 November 2025, while the Commonwealth Home Support Program continues to operate until at least 1 July 2027. Here's a comparison so you can see where you sit and what's coming next.
Just Better Care acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. We also acknowledge the diversity of Australian culture and extend our support to all individuals, regardless of culture or sexuality.
