Commonwealth Home Support Programme
As a model provider for CALD services, we have worked for more than 10 years with a wide variety of multicultural organisations to provide Commonwealth Home Support Programs to Arabic, Assyrian, Greek, Italian, Korean and Vietnamese communities.
Our CHSP Service offers timely, high quality, entry-level support services, based on each person’s individual goals, preferences and choices. Our emphasis is on restorative approaches, including wellness and reablement – so people get to stay living in their own homes for as long as they can and wish to do so.
Our service also supports the care relationship between CHSP consumers and their carers who assist the older person to continue living comfortably at home.
