Commonwealth Home
Support Programme
The Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) is a Government subsidised program for over 65s who just need a little bit of extra support.
With CHSP, the focus is on working with you, rather than doing it for you. It’s about building on what you can do, to help you stay in your home - independently and safely.
You may be eligible for Commonwealth Home Support Program funding if you are:
- Having trouble doing everyday activities without help, and
- Need support to live independently in the community
and are:
- Aged 65 years or older
- Aged 50 years or older (45 years or older for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people) and on a low inc
To find out if you're eligible for the Commonwealth Home Support Programme or to understand if CHSP is the best funding for you, contact My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 for more information.
