Cardinia Shire Council is pleased to announce a series of informative sessions on My Aged Care and Care Finder services, happening in March and May 2025.
These sessions are designed to provide valuable information and support to our older community members aged 55+ years, and their families.
The Victorian Government’s subsidised My Aged Care program and free Care Finder service can help eligible people to access services like cleaning, shopping, and personal care, ensuring they can live safely and independently. To access My Aged Care, you need to have an assessment.
These sessions will provide information about a range of topics, including how to register for My Aged Care, the application and assessment process, how to book an appointment with an Aged Care Specialist Officer, and about the Care Finder service.
All sessions are free, include refreshments, and offer individual discussions with experts. Bookings are required for catering purposes.
Book now, for one or both sessions, by contacting Council’s Ageing Well Team by calling 1300 787 624 or emailing [email protected].
