As we age, everyday household tasks can become more difficult, increasing safety risks and pressure on family, but needing support does not mean leaving your own home.
Accessing the right aged care services at the right time, such as domestic assistance, mowing and gardening, or cleaning high-risk areas, helps older Australians stay safe.
Delivered through the Commonwealth Home Support Program, HomeFront’s services support wellbeing and help older Australians live independently at home for longer.
The CHSP is an Australian Government funded aged care program designed for older Australians who are generally managing well, but need low-level or entry-level support to continue living at home.
CHSP services are flexible and tailored to individual needs. Depending on eligibility and assessment outcomes, services may include domestic assistance, home maintenance, minor home modifications, meal services, personal care and social support. These services are delivered by approved CHSP service providers and subsidised by government funding, with a small client contribution.
Many people use CHSP services as their first interaction with the aged care system. As needs change or become more complex, individuals may later be referred for a Home Care Package, which provides coordinated and higher-intensity home care services.
HomeFront Australia works within this framework to deliver practical support that aligns with each person’s care plan, preferences and eligibility criteria.
HomeFront delivers domestic assistance, home maintenance, mowing and gardening and meal services as part of the Commonwealth Home Support Program, providing one reliable point of contact for all CHSP services.
CHSP services are government funded, with a small client contribution that supports quality care, skilled service providers and consistent delivery across your local area.
There are no long-term contracts or ongoing obligations. Services are flexible, easy to access and can vary based on individual needs, preferences and availability.
HomeFront Australia is run by Australian Veterans and members of the wider Defence Community. We deliver professional household and home support services across Australia.
In addition to supporting older Australians under the Commonwealth Home Support Program, HomeFront provides services for Department of Veterans’ Affairs clients, large strata communities and national commercial organisations including Bunnings, Hertz and Frank Knight.
