Common questions about home care in Forth
How many home care providers are there in Forth?
None are based in Forth itself, but 15 operate within 30 km. Home care providers service areas well beyond their office suburb, so this is rarely a barrier.
How much does home care in Forth cost?
Your costs depend on your assessed Support at Home classification and your income and assets. Clinical care is fully government funded. You contribute a share of independence and everyday living services, and hourly rates vary between providers servicing Forth, so compare two or three before committing.
Do I have to choose a provider in Forth itself?
No. Providers set their own service areas and many cover a wide region, so a provider based in a neighbouring suburb may well service Forth. Always confirm coverage directly.
What is the first step to arranging care in Forth?
An assessment through My Aged Care (myagedcare.gov.au or 1800 200 422). Nothing is government funded until that assessment is done, and the queue moves slowly, so applying early is the single most useful thing you can do. You can shortlist providers while you wait.
