Support at Home Thin Markets (rural, remote and specialised) 2025-26

Grant Description

The Support at Home Thin Markets (rural, remote and specialised) 2025–26 Grant Opportunity provides up to $297.4 million in supplementary funding for eligible Home Care Packages (HCP) and Short-Term Restorative Care (STRC) providers transitioning into the Support at Home program. It targets thin markets — areas or cohorts where aged care needs exceed available services — to ensure continued delivery of quality care in Modified Monash Model (MM) regions 3–7 and for recipients requiring specialised services. The grant supports provider viability and equitable access to home care services for older Australians, especially in rural, remote, or specialised contexts.
