We deliver a range of supports, helping you understand the Support at Home program and benefit from the care you need in the comfort of your home.
What is the Support at Home program?
Support at Home is Australia’s new approach to aged care in the home. It brings together a range of supports under a single, flexible system designed to help older Australians maintain their independence for as long as possible – even if you are self-managed.
Instead of managing multiple providers or programs, you can receive all your services through one registered provider — making your care simpler, clearer and more coordinated.
Focused Health Care: your trusted provider
As your chosen provider, Focused Health Care becomes your trusted partner throughout your aged care journey. We will:
- Get to know you so we understand how best to support you
- Guide you through the Support at Home program
- Deliver services that meet your needs, ensuring you receive hospital-grade care at home.
We deliver the clinical care and support you need with the dignity you deserve
Your dedicated care partner
You will have a consistent point of contact — your care partner — who helps you plan and manage your services, monitors your progress, and ensures your care remains aligned with your goals.
0% participant contribution for clinical supports
All clinical supports in the program are funded at 0% participant contribution. This means you can access nursing and allied health supports through Focused Health Care without out-of-pocket costs for these items.
One provider coordinating your care
With us, you benefit from a single provider delivering all supports — clinical, independence and everyday living — ensuring seamless communication and a consistent, nurse-led approach.
Who is eligible for Support at Home?
You may be eligible if:
- You are an older Australian needing support to remain independent
- You have been assessed through My Aged Care and assigned a Support at Home classification
- You require services such as clinical care, personal care, transport support, social engagement or assistance with daily tasks.
Focused Health Care works closely with individuals and families to help you understand eligibility and next steps.

Short-term pathways
Support at Home includes three time-limited pathways for people who have specific or changing needs.
Focused Health Care is accredited to deliver all three pathways, using a coordinated, nurse-led approach.
Restorative care pathway
A structured, 16-week multidisciplinary program designed to help you regain function or maintain independence after an illness, injury or hospital stay.
Our team provides coordinated nursing, rehabilitation and allied health services to support your recovery goals.
End-of-life pathway
A dedicated 12-week pathway providing compassionate palliative care for individuals who wish to remain at home.
We support you and your family with holistic, nurse-led care that prioritises comfort, dignity and personalised support during this time.
Assistive technology and home modifications (AT-HM)
This pathway provides separate funding for equipment and modifications that support independence at home.
We help you navigate your AT-HM options, understand funding tiers, and access equipment such as mobility aids, bathroom modifications or assistive devices.
