Aged Care Financial Advice Guidance when important decisions can’t wait.
Few financial decisions carry the emotional weight of aged care.
Families are often required to make complex choices quickly while supporting someone they love.
Most people step into aged care having never experienced it before. And the questions come quickly.
Should we keep the family home? How are accommodation payments structured? What does this mean for Centrelink? How will this affect the estate?
When time is limited, clarity matters.
Understanding the Financial Landscape
Aged care decisions involve more than choosing a facility or support provider. There are financial components to consider, including:
Refundable Accommodation Deposits (RAD)
Daily Accommodation Payments (DAP)
Means testing
Treatment of the family home
Impact on Age Pension entitlements
Ongoing care fees
Without guidance, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
