Understanding fees and costs
Moving into residential aged care is a big decision. It can be an emotional and confusing one too. With all the information to review, it’s important to understand the costs associated with your aged care and how you might go about accessing government-funded services.
Our Residential Admissions Coordinators work with you at every stage.
Where to start
Residential aged care fees are regulated by the Australian Government and may be subsidised based on your income and assets. How much you pay is different for every person.
Should you wish to access government-funded aged care services, you'll need apply for an aged care assessment via My Aged Care website. This free assessment involves talking about your current situation and working out if you are eligible to receive aged care services.
Availability in all our residential aged care communities located across Brisbane varies, so it’s best to talk to us about your needs. Contact us today to find out whether a fully supported aged care vacancy at Wesley Mission Queensland may be right for you.
