The goal of the Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) is to keep you living at your home as independently as possible. RERC/Russian Aged Care is funded to provide an extra helping hand with everyday tasks that require low-level support.
We know that for seniors everyday tasks can become more difficult. Even though you need help, you may still want to live at home. We believe that asking for help doesn’t mean losing your independence or moving out of home. We are happy to provide all necessary support and we speak the Russian language!
Eligibility for this program is based on your support needs and age:
To find out if you are eligible for a Commonwealth Home Support Programme, visit the My Aged Care website or call the information line on 1800 200 422
