Our Support is Tailored to Your Individual Needs
You may only want a couple of supports, such as assistance with gardening, cleaning or shopping. Or it may be that you’re in need of a great deal more support than many others. We cater for the diverse needs you have, and we do it with warmth and compassion. It is important to us that you maintain your independence.
Where possible, AMCS matches you with support workers from the same cultural background. Migration is a key influence on the lives of many of the people we support, and most people will have faced many challenges while adjusting to life in Australia. For some seniors this includes the ongoing effects of experiences before migration. AMCS understands just how important it is to have someone that you can relate to and understand, providing you with the supports you need.
Available Funding
If you get in touch with us, we can help you find out what sort of funding you may be eligible to receive from the government. Some people are eligible for up to $48,000 per year in support, and many others get half that amount. With our Fee-For-Service options (ideal for self-funded retirees), you are able to obtain a large range of diverse culturally appropriate support to meet your immediate needs.
