Thank you for applying to join Carinity’s residential aged care communities.
One of our Customer Service Consultants will be in contact with you soon to support you through the application and admission process.
We look forward to speaking with you.
If you have not yet received an assessment from My Aged Care, please contact them on 1800 200 422 or visit myagedcare.gov.au. If your aged care assessment was completed more than 3 months ago, and you do not have a hospital discharge summary or care plan, please arrange with your GP to email us a copy of your Medical Health Summary to agedcare@carinity.org.au or complete the form online. This ensures we can make an accurate assessment of your care needs.
You may have to pay a means tested care fee and accommodation costs. A means assessment determines if you need to pay the means tested care fee and if the Australian Government will contribute to your accommodation costs.
Use this link to determine if you need to complete an income and means assessment.
If we have a suite that meets your care needs, we will contact you to discuss your personal financial situation. To prepare for this conversation, you will need to have information regarding home ownership, any partners or dependents living in the home, and information regarding any income support payments you, your partner or dependents may receive. Here is a form you can download and prefill in preparation for this conversation.
Below are a number of resources to help you with your application for entry in to one of our communities.
