Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP)

What is CHSP?

Are you or a loved one looking for support to maintain independence and well-being at home? The Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) might be exactly what you need. At Halo Care Services, we're here to guide you through the process of accessing CHSP and provide the support you require.

The Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) is an Australian Government initiative designed to provide older Australians with basic support services to help them stay independent and in their homes for longer. CHSP services cover a range of assistance, from help with daily tasks to social activities, all tailored to individual needs.

How to Obtain CHSP through My Aged Care

Accessing CHSP is a straightforward process through My Aged Care. Here's how it works:

Register with My Aged Care

Begin by contacting My Aged Care (1800 200 422) to register and undergo a free assessment to determine your eligibility for CHSP services.

Assessment by a RAS Assessor

Following registration, a Regional Assessment Service (RAS) assessor will conduct a thorough assessment of your needs. This assessment helps identify the types of support that would benefit you the most.

Discussion of Options

After the assessment, you'll have a discussion with the RAS assessor about the available support options, including CHSP services.

Referral to Service Providers

If CHSP is deemed suitable for your needs, the RAS assessor will refer you to service providers to access the support you require.
