Common questions about home care in Nelson
How many home care providers are there in Nelson?

How much does home care in Nelson 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 Nelson, so compare two or three before committing.
Do I have to choose a provider in Nelson 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 Nelson. Always confirm coverage directly.
What is the first step to arranging care in Nelson?
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.
