Connecting Choices with Care
We empower individuals to live their lives with dignity and autonomy.
We are committed to supporting people's choices, ensuring they have the freedom to decide how they want to live and how they want to be cared for during what can be a vulnerable part of life. Our team of dedicated professionals provides a range of services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual, helping them navigate the complexities of the health and aged care system. We strive to prevent individuals from falling through the cracks, ensuring they receive the care and support they deserve.
Our goal is to create a compassionate and inclusive environment where everyone can age with grace and independence.
Home Care Packages (HCP)*
-
As a community organisation KKCS Aged Care Services is here to help you understand these programs and assist you along the way.
Under a Home Care Package, you get to choose the services you receive and who provides them. If you choose KKCS Aged Care Services we can help you manage your Home Care Package and deliver many of the services you may want to assist you to remain living at home within a Consumer Directed Care approach.
We can assist you in the delivery of your supports to enable you to enjoy life your way and to help you do the things that you enjoy including maintaining your independence. Our focus is to provide quality supports and services which enables you to stay at home for as long as you want. -
