Home Care - Living independently for longer.
As a not-for-profit organisation, our focus is to offer you high quality, reliable care provided by a team of support staff who are committed to working in their own local community.
Christian Homes Tasmania (CHT) provide specialised services to help you stay safe and independent in your own home. We recognise that looking after yourself and others can become difficult, especially with the many tasks that require attention around the home and keeping yourself healthy too. This is when CHT Home Care can provide the additional help and support you may need.
The Home Care team can assist you with a range of care services from minimal assistance such as extra help with household tasks, meals, assistance with personal care and shopping, through to more complex care support needs from our Nursing and Allied Health staff.

Fee Schedule
CHT wishes for you to have maximum funds available in your package to cover the services and products you require and we will work with you and/or your representative to ensure that you can get the most out of your funds.
We focus on supporting your health, well-being and independence by providing you services from basic gardening, domestic assistance, personal care and transport to and from appointments and shopping through to the more complex support services such as nursing and allied health. CHT will retain a small amount from your monthly government subsidy to deliver your care package to cover:
- Package management is the ongoing administration and organisational activities associated with ensuring the smooth delivery and management of your package such as rostering, generating accounts and managing staff.
- Care Management is for the management of your care including writing support plans and regular reviews by the Registered Nurse.
CHT also pays Support Workers for the time it takes them to travel between clients, plus the kilometres travelled. Therefore we will charge the home care package for these travel costs as well.
Funding Support
