This week, Kirinari Chief Executive Officer Diane Lynch appeared before the Senate Community Affairs Committee Inquiry into the transition of the Commonwealth Home Support Programme to the new Support at Home Program.

Ms Lynch highlighted the importance of policy settings that reflect the realities of where Australians live. “Unless you expect everyone to migrate to metropolitan areas, there needs to be solutions that account for where people live. If people receive the care they need in their own home, this relieves pressure on regional hospitals,” she said.

She also emphasised the need to recognise the operational impacts of reform, noting that “the Support at Home model is more complex, and greater complexity directly translates into greater cost.”

Kirinari welcomes the opportunity to provide our regional perspective on the transition to Support at Home. We must ensure everyone can live a good life in their own home.

We’re excited to be delivering WorkFoundations in Albury! ⭐

WorkFoundations is a six-month government-funded program supporting young people aged 16–25 who have faced barriers to finding or keeping a job.

Participants get paid, real-world experience with local businesses two days a week, plus half a day of training and one-on-one support with Kirinari. Kirinari also provides wraparound support throughout, working with both participants and employers to build confidence, skills and pathways into ongoing employment. ✔️

Everyone deserves access to quality care, no matter where they live.

Kirinari has have made a submission to the Senate Committee Inquiry into The Transition of the Commonwealth Home Support Program to the Support at Home Program.

As Australia’s largest regional provider of human services, we see every day that delivering care in the regions is different.

Travel distances, thin markets and workforce pressures mean regional providers simply can’t match an hour of care to an hour of funding under metropolitan designed models.

Policy designed in the cities must not forget the realities of the regions. Kirinari will continue to advocate for models that ensure regional Australians are not left behind simply because of where they live.

Our submission highlighted these challenges, with case studies on our experience of the Support at Home Program. This can be read in full on the Committee webpage: https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Community_Affairs/CHSPTransition/Submissions

CHSP and Support at Home both provide essential supports for older Australians – but they offer different levels of care.

✅CHSP is ideal if you need a little help now and then — such as basic assistance to stay independent and connected in your community.

✅Support at Home, on the other hand, is a more comprehensive home care program designed for people who need regular, coordinated support to live safely and well at home.

To help you work out which option might be right for you or a loved one, we’ve outlined the key differences below
