Aged care
At Sacred Heart Mission, we believe a safe community is vital in breaking the cycle of homelessness and one of the first steps is secure and stable housing. We support people into housing and also support people who want to stay in their housing as they age in their community.
In response to the Aged Care Royal Commission, Australia’s aged care system is going through significant changes to make life better for older Australians. The changes are designed to ensure Australia’s aged care system better supports a greater number of older people to live independently and safely in their own homes for as long as possible. These changes come in effect November 1 2025.
