How you can support carers As a local aged care provider, you meet these carers every day in the work you do.

Carers can access Emergency Respite care 24/7 by calling 1800 422 737. With an ageing population, the need for carers of older people and ageing carers themselves is increasing, meaning more carers need access to My Aged Care. Our Aged Care Navigators ensure that ageing carers, carers of older people and family carers with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds have greater access to the information and support they require to successfully engage with the My Aged Care system.
