Who's Eligible?
Eligibility for CHSP is based on your age and support needs. If everyday tasks have become more difficult and a little support could improve your health and wellbeing, CHSP may be right for you.

65 years and older (or 50 years or older for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people)

50 years or older (or 45 years or older for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people) on a low income and homeless, or at risk of homelessness
An aged care assessment will determine your eligibility for CHSP services, including specific modifications and repairs.
