Pricing

Prices and what you'd pay

Five Good Friends South Australia’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 Five Good Friends South Australia’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 $198 at this provider’s weekday price. A full pensioner would pay about $34.65 of that, and a self-funded retiree without a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card about $158.40.

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.

Do not get in touch with these people. Karen Walker was supposed to come to my parents home to do a care plan for my mother and she was a no show. I sent them the relevant details and client number and they said the number wasn't right but I've given this number to other providers and there was not a problem. Anyway I had family members there waiting to discuss a care plan when she didn't show i rang the office first I was told oh yes she has an appointment she will be there then when I rang a second time they said oh no she won't be coming as paperwork isn't correct. They wasted my time and families time. They really talked themselves up about how amazing they are then all I hear is crickets. These people are unprofessional and disgusting if this is my first impression of them just imagine the rest. Dont trust them.

Can’t speak highly enough of this company, the greatest respect for the Angels behind the scenes doing the hard coordination over three areas and emails in Brisbane, never had such quick responses in my life. They have been absolutely delightful to deal with not once have we yet had to follow up they get back asap we have never known such smiles speed and service from people in paper form in another state and with such diligence and understanding nothing has been a problem, and we couldn’t have come across at a harder time for everybody trying to understand what is happening in Aged Care, but never once where we made to feel anything other than respected. As for the beautiful helpers that support our Mum with prompt arrival to shift, dignity, respect, kindness, patience, and understanding, cleanliness we are beyond grateful and blessed there prompt reporting and attention to detail is beyond anything we could’ve hoped for. We wish to thank them for supporting us to support our Mum to an age in place. Thank you a very small word but with a very big meaning 🌻🌻

Use to be a good company but now they are greedy and take from the people who r most vulnerable. Prices went up through the roof. I do not recommend this greedy company, currently searching for a new provider to kick them to the curb!I hope they lose all their clients because of what they did to us all. Shame on u all five good friends who changed the prices. A 5 hours visit went up $170.50 ! Disgraceful!!!

Receptionist was extremely combative and defensive while calling me defensive. Got my email address wrong twice, tried to tell me what tone of voice to use and what words to use. Just an argumentative person almost seems like she was trying to provoke an argument so she could say they wouldn't deal with me. She asked me no less than 4 times if I'm happy to continue.. to me it was obvious because the minute I was no longer happy to continue, I said goodbye goodbye goodbye and hung up the phone. That's when u know someone isn't happy to continue. She asked me to work with her I told her I was doing my best. I explained if I had perfect social skills I wouldn't need an ndis plan but she couldn't comprehend that and wanted Me to be perfect trying to micro manage every aspect of who I am. Poor quality phone staff imo. Thanks for wasting my time
