Do I need an aged care assessment?
Usually, yes. To access subsidised aged care at Superior Care, every prospective resident needs an eligibility assessment through My Aged Care. The assessment confirms the level of care needed and lets us claim government funding, which reduces your fees. Our team at Wellington Park and Merrimac Park can explain each step of the process.
Why the assessment matters
The assessment is required for all government funded aged care. It confirms the level of care needed and lets Superior Care claim government funding, which reduces your fees.
You can choose not to disclose your finances, but you will then pay 100% of your care costs, including the subsidy the Commonwealth Government would normally cover.
How do I book an assessment?
Assessments are arranged through My Aged Care. Call 1800 200 422 or visit www.myagedcare.gov.au.
What happens after the assessment?
Choose the Superior Care residence on the Gold Coast or in Redland City that best suits your loved one and your family.
Make an enquiry and we will talk through their care needs and financial situation.
We can also arrange a tour of the residence for you.

What do I look for when selecting an Aged Care residence?
To determine if an aged care residence is the right fit, it's recommended to speak with team members and current residents to get a sense of the community culture and atmosphere. Additionally, it's important to pay attention to cleanliness throughout the entire facility, from the moment you enter the door to visiting each individual room.
