Aged care · Support at Home

Help at home for mum or dad, from people they’ll get to know.

We deliver Support at Home services across Victoria: personal care, help around the house, meals, outings, and a break for the family.

  • Two familiar workers for every client
  • A reply within one business day
  • Screened, insured, trained team

Personal care is now fully funded.

Since 1 October 2026, help with showering, dressing and continence under Support at Home has no contribution from you, as long as it’s in your support plan and there’s funding in your budget.

How Support at Home works

Everyday help, at home and out and about

  • Personal care

    Showering, dressing, grooming and continence care, done the way your parent likes it.

    Fully funded
  • Help around the house

    Cleaning, laundry and shopping, so home stays safe and comfortable.

  • Meals

    Planning and cooking meals at home, the way they like them.

  • Company and outings

    Visits, conversation, and someone to go along to the shops, a café or a club.

  • A break for carers

    Someone trusted at home, so the family can rest, work or get away.

Where are you up to?

Already have Support at Home?

Tell your Support at Home provider you’d like SESI. If they work with us, it can be as quick as one phone call. If not, call us and we’ll talk you through your options.

I have a provider

Approved, but no provider yet?

We’ll help you choose a provider that lets you pick your own support team, including us, and help with the paperwork so support starts without a gap.

Help me get started

Not assessed yet, or still waiting?

Start with My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 to book an assessment. While you wait, we can start support you pay for privately, so your parent isn’t going without.

Talk to us

The same friendly faces, week after week

Every SESI client has at least two familiar workers, rostered that way on purpose. If one is sick or on leave, someone your parent already knows comes instead.

Before every visit, your parent’s worker reads their care plan, so they arrive knowing what matters: how they like their tea, which days are harder, what the family has asked us to watch for.

Questions families ask

Who can get Support at Home?

People aged 65 and over (50 and over for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people) who need help to keep living at home. It starts with an assessment through My Aged Care on 1800 200 422.

Can I choose SESI if I already have a provider?

Yes, you can ask for SESI. If your provider works with us, it’s straightforward. If not, call us and we’ll explain your options.

How much will it cost me?

It depends on the service and on your income and assets. Personal care has no contribution. For other services, Services Australia works out your contribution. Our prices are on our prices page, and we’ll go through exactly what you’ll pay before anything starts.

Will my parent see the same workers?

Yes. Every client has at least two familiar workers, so there’s always someone they know.

Which areas do you cover?

We deliver support in person across Victoria.

Can we pay privately while we wait?

Yes. Our private rates are our Support at Home rates plus GST, and you can start without an assessment.
