ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The JNC acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands on which we work, the Gadigal and Bidjigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging and acknowledge that these lands always were and always will be Aboriginal lands. We celebrate First Nations Peoples’ connection to the land and recognise the importance of Indigenous voices and culture. We would like to advise that there may be images or videos on this website of people who have since passed.

Consumer Directed Care Workshop

Controlling My Own Life: Making the most of Consumer Directed Care Workshop

Controlling My Own Life: Making the most of Consumer Directed Care

Consumer Directed Care gives individual consumers more control over the kind of assistance they receive with basic living tasks in their homes. 

This workshop is designed to inform older people, friends, families, carers and community members about recent changes. Learn more about the way you can access service and support in your home. Receive information about the choices you can make to get the most out of the Consumer Directed Care Package you receive.

Older people have managed their own lives for a lifetime and want to continue to do this. Recent aged care reforms  recognise this. Under consumer direction the people getting the service take the decision on what mix of assistance and supports best fit their way of living.

Even if you’re years away from accessing a Consumer Directed Care Package yourself, you are welcome to attend. You will be able to tell friends and family about the benefits of this new approach to home care. Carers are also welcome to attend these sessions.
