CHSP Social Support - Individual

What Does It Cost?

If you're eligible for CHSP services in your home, you'll need to make a personal contribution. The Australian Government heavily subsidises our Commonwealth Home Support Programme, ensuring your fees remain affordable. Typically, you will contribute around $11 per hour for individual social support. Plus, there are no exit fees or hidden charges under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme.
