Navigating the Aged Care System                                                      

Do you, or a loved one need help navigating the aged care system? We can help!!

The ACT Disability Aged Carer Advocacy Service (ADACAS) is working with the Council on the Ageing (COTA) to see how people are navigating aged care home services and support through My Aged Care (MAC).

Eligibility to access MAC is open to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 50 years or older, all non-Indigenous people aged 65 years or older and Prematurely Aged individuals (50 years or older for non-indigenous people and 45 years or older for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples).

ADACAS Aged Care Navigators provides a free My Aged Care information service to eligible individuals, their families and carer’s, in person, by phone or by video-link. We can also coordinate the help of the Translating Information Services for people from linguistically diverse backgrounds or with auditory impairments.

To start making enquiries about your aged care plans please contact Ken at ADACAS on 6242 5060 or AgedCareNavigator@adacas.org.au
