Pricing

Prices and what you'd pay

Freewave Aged Care - Illawarra/Shoalhaven’s full prices from My Aged Care. Your Support at Home budget pays for services, and you pay a share called a contribution.

What you pay

These are Freewave Aged Care - Illawarra/Shoalhaven’s full prices. With Support at Home, the government pays part of the cost and you pay a share, called a contribution. Services Australia confirms your rates and your provider confirms the amount charged.

You pay nothing towards clinical care such as nursing and personal care. For other services your share is between 5% and 80%, depending on the service and your pension or income.

For example, 2 hours of general house cleaning a week costs $234 at this provider’s weekday price. A full pensioner would pay about $40.95 of that, and a self-funded retiree without a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card about $187.20.

Available funding, the lifetime cap and financial hardship can change what you pay. Lower “no worse off” rates apply if, on 12 September 2024, you were receiving a Home Care Package, were on the National Priority System or had been assessed as eligible. Use Add on any service to build a weekly estimate of the charges and your share.

We had very poor experiences with many providers! However, from our first phone call with Freewave we felt a sense of great relief! The immediate callback from Sharon, the manager, was the exception and not the rule! Within days she came to our house and we signed up! Best thing we could have done! The support from this team, Sharon, Jasmine and Medhavi has been exceptional. I would recommend them to anyone wanting thoughtful, caring and KNOWLEDGEABLE providers.
