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