Amana Living are here to provide Home Care services whatever your needs. If you are still quite independent and active, you might need only a bit of help with daily chores. Or you might need more help to maintain your independence and keep active in your local community. Later on in life, you may want help with personal care or health needs, such as physiotherapy, podiatry and nursing.
Amana Living offer a wide range of Home Care services:
| IN HOME SUPPORT | Cleaning, Laundry, Handyman, Cooking, Personal Care and Gardening |
| HEALTH | Nursing, Podiatry, Physiotherapy, Dietician, Occupational Therapist |
| COMMUNITY / SOCIAL | Transport, Shopping, Social Outings, Pet Care, Equipment & Supplies, Respite |
Depending on your needs and preferences, you may be eligible for Government-subsidised services. There fall into two catergories:
Home and Community Care (HACC) - Funding is provided by the Commonwealth for simple care services.
Packaged Care - There are four levels pf package, taking you right through from simple home support to more regular clinical services, such as nursing and dementia care.
| Level 1 | $22.35 a day in funding ($156.45 weekly) |
| Level 2 | $40.65 a day in funding ($284.55 weekly) |
| Level 3 | $89.37 a day in funding ($625.59 weekly) |
| Level 4 | $135.87 a day in funding ($951.09 weekly) |
We can help you find out what you are eligible for by calling our Customer Care team or completing the online enquiry form. You also have the option of purchasing top-up services if you have requirements that go beyond the services available with subsidised care.
As your needs change, the services you receive at home from Amana Living can also change. We will work with you to determine the best combination of services for you and the most cost-effective way to access those services. We will make sure they are delivered at the right time by skilled and friendly staff.
When you know what services you are eligible to receive, we can arrange for these to be delivered to you. We operate across the Perth metro area and in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.
We can also arrange top-up services if you want more than the services available to you under subsidised care.
To find out if you are eligible for HACC services, contact us and we will help you.
Alternatively, you can talk to the Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centre on 1800 200 422. A Regional Assessment Team will then carry out an assessment and decide whether you are eligible for HACC services.
Eligibility for packaged care is determined by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT). We can help you at every step of the process, so call us at any time for assistance. Assessment works in the following way:
Confused? Call Leonie for assistance on 1300 26 26 26.
If you are approved for a Home Care package, you will be given one of four different levels of funding:
| Level 1 | $22.35 a day in funding ($156.45 weekly) |
| Level 2 | $40.65 a day in funding ($284.55 weekly) |
| Level 3 | $89.37 a day in funding ($625.59 weekly) |
| Level 4 | $135.87 a day in funding ($951.09 weekly) |
These funds will be paid into your package by the government for you to use on approved services via your home care provider.
You may apply for the Daily Contribution Fee amount to be reduced if you have high medical and health related costs or are in financial hardship.
Reducing this daily fee will reduce the amount of funds you have available to use each day.
If you think you may be eligible for this fee reduction please speak to our customer service team on 1300 26 26 26.
Below are the hourly rates that you will be charged from your home care package. You will only be charged in 15 minute increments. Many other providers charge in 30 minute and 60 minute increments.
Care Support Worker (per hour):
Nurse (per hour):
For the full range of prices, please contact our Customer Service Centre on 1300 26 26 26.
If you access Government-subsidised services, the cost is the same, whatever services you choose. This will be worked out according to your individual circumstances. Any unspent funds accumulate for you to use later on.
Depending on your needs and preferences, you may be eligible for Home and Community Care (HACC) or Packaged Care. We can help you find out what you are eligible for. We can also arrange top-up services if you want more than the services available to you under subsidised care.

Further to Jackie's reply, I would also like to take the opportunity to thank you for all your professional guidance with helping us achieve this wonderful support package that has been put into place to keep our Dad independent. I cannot praise Vimala enough too.
Although my Dad may not acknowledge it, we most certainly do.
I wish you the very best for the future. It has been a pleasure. Amana Living is very fortunate to have you as part of their team.
Thanks to all the staff that have assisted with the care of my Aunty over the past 18months. Aunty Judy (Judith Sabbioni) passed away peacefully on Sunday night 20 August with Vitalie (Vic) by her side.
The compassion, time & effort shown by all the staff has been comforting and if you could please pass on my thanks to all that would be greatly appreciated.
I appreciate how promptly you were able to accommodate my Aunt and Uncle who are not the easiest of people to work with at times. If their are outstanding accounts to be paid please feel free to forward them through to me to finalise.
I also want to thank you for educating me on the Australian ‘Aged Care’ system. I certainly learnt a lot and appreciate your assistance.

I wonder if I could grab your attention for a moment please , to express our sincere gratitude for the manner in which Jove Bogoevski carried
out his duties as Service Coordinator, in looking after the affairs of our aged mother, Helen Hondris.
My brother Cyril & sister Eva and myself, naturally are most concerned about our mother, who is 99 years old & will reach her centenary with 2 months. Jove arrived at our
mothers house well ahead of the appointment time and owing to the complexity of the transition to a level 2 , methodically explained to the family the benefits
and advantages of this new package. He was very warm and I suppose as we are also from a foreign back ground, his accent and bubbling personality, immediately
set our anxious mother at ease. Furthermore, the concerns of we siblings was also laid to complex products and services. I wonder if you might just give him
a pat on the back on behalf of the Hondris family. This man did go the “added mile” in setting our family at ease explaining every aspect of this new package.
Thank you for taking the time to read this testimonial.

I just wanted to thank Vincent and Amana for their wonderful service.
I did not know what I would have done on Sunday if it was not for Vincent with his fast thinking and acting. He remained cool and calm the whole time and that kept me and Peter very calm in a stressful situation.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so wonderful and always making sure my husband has the best possible care.

After this visit I also saw Ray & Val Hollingworth who absolutely adore you. Ray especially and he appreciates your weekly visits and how much you care. Ray has been a little difficult to get along with in the past and you have demonstrated that we are there to support him and do what you do best, so thank you so much for being so wonderful with my clients. I will gladly put in a RRR nomination for you.
