Benetas can support you to stay independent and continue doing what makes you, you; all from the familiar surrounds of your own home. We offer an extensive range of home care services and funding options to suit your individual circumstances.
Call 1300 23 63 82We continue to provide essential care and support for the older people in our community
Our health and needs are constantly changing, but as we get older there is more for us to consider to stay strong and living our best lives. Taking proactive steps to preserve our health and maintain a full and holistic lifestyle has a significant impact on quality of life and reducing the speed of frailty, our risk of injury, hospitalisation or entering permanent care.
You have many options to choose from - whether that's accessing home care services temporarily, or for the long term, during the day or overnight.
Whatever your situation may be, we can help you get started. Call 1300 23 63 82 to speak to a friendly member of the Benetas team.
Enjoy transport and/or companionship for outings, shopping, club meetings, appointments and more!
Relax as we offer a hand around the home with household tasks and cleaning.
Enjoy healthy home-cooked meals suitable to your dietary requirements, or get the grocery shopping done for you.
Access equipment and technologies to help make your life more safe, comfortable and enjoyable.
Receive clinical and holistic support by a caring, qualified Nurse in your own home.
We can arrange for a health care professional to visit you in your home to provide a range of specialised support such as podiatry, massage or counselling.
We can support you with tasks such as bathing, showering, grooming, dressing, toileting, getting in and out of bed and moving around the house.
Carers also need to take care of themselves. Take a break, whilst your loved one receives excellent care.

Home Care Package
Privately Funded
Veteran's Home Care
Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP)
To apply for a Home Care Package, visit My Aged Care and fill in an online form, or you can call them on 1800 200 422.
An assessor will visit your home to clarify your needs, and if eligible, you'll be added to a wait list.
Once you've been assigned a Home Care Package, your funds will be made available through a service provider of your choice. Your service provider will work with you to select, plan out and schedule a range of services to suit your needs and lifestyle.
Find out more about Home Care Packages including how to apply, funding levels and service types here.
Privately funding all or some of your home care services could be the right choice for you if:
Reduced wait times: At Benetas we don't let the red tape slow us down. In fact if you choose to privately fund your home care services, we're often able to start providing home care within 3-5 business days.
No assessment: Unlike Government-funded home care, you will not be obliged to go through an assessment with My Aged Care. Instead, you just need to meet with your home care provider (either face-to-face or over the phone) to discuss your goals and plan out your services.
Less paperwork: You'll have less paperwork to sign!
Short term, long term or one-off - it's your choice: If you only need temporary assistance or even one-off help, privately funding could be the best option for you.
Other options for short term care include in-home nursing and respite services.
Call us on 1300 23 63 82 to find out more or get your services set up.
Benetas is a Veteran's Home Care provider in the shires of Hume, Loddon, Grampians and Gippsland. If you live in one of these areas and are a Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) client eligible for Veterans' Home Care, you are able to choose Benetas as your preferred provider.
To apply for VHC, ring your VHC Assessment Agency on 1300 550 450. Other people can also refer you to the VHC Assessment Agency with your consent, such as family members, carers, friends, General Practitioners and hospital discharge planners.
Following the referral, you'll need to undertake an assessment by a VHC assessor. The VHC assessor will discuss your circumstances with you to identify the range of services you may need.
For more information please call our friendly customer centre team on 1300 23 63 82.
