Perhaps it\u2019s your goal to continue gardening in your yard, or to enjoy regular visits with your neighbour. Perhaps you want to continue hosting family gatherings in your home. But it\u2019s likely that your independence is something you value.<\/p><p>Managing your Home Care Package, yourself can be a way that you continue to exercise your independence, choice, and control. Since your package funds belong to you, and you can spend them wherever you wish, it\u2019s beneficial for you to become knowledgeable about exactly how and why your funds are spent. And since no one understands your care needs better than you, in many ways, no one is better qualified to manage your care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ae1df06 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1ae1df06\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">What is a self-managed Home Care Package?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a737a76 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a737a76\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Every Home Care Package requires at least one care manager to oversee the use of the funds.

With provider management, ADACSS will choose, hire, and schedule your carers. To self-manage this aspect of your package, you\u2019ll need to find carers, check their qualifications, and schedule your care. This could include running background checks, checking certifications, and verifying their training credentials. Your provider is still legally responsible for ensuring that your carers are qualified, so you\u2019ll need to find carers who meet their requirements.<\/p><p>You\u2019ll also need to manage your carers, which means that if you have a concern about something your carer does, you\u2019ll need to address it directly with them. This means you can talk directly with the person responsible about your concerns, but it also could mean having an uncomfortable conversation if you aren\u2019t happy with your carer.<\/p><p>You\u2019ll also be responsible for personally scheduling your care. If you contract with several individual carers, you\u2019ll need to schedule appointments with each of them individually. In addition, If your usual carer is sick or otherwise unavailable, you\u2019ll need to schedule a substitute.<\/p><p>If you work with ADACSS you do not need to work any of these, just speak to your client services manager and she will do everything for your.<\/p><p>Finally, since you\u2019ll be employing your carers directly, you\u2019ll need to comply with all Fair Work Australia employment guidelines. This means you\u2019ll need to give your carers a tax group certificate, and you may have to pay their superannuation. You\u2019ll also need to determine whether you need to pay GST, and if so, you\u2019ll have to calculate the amount and remit it annually. With ADACSS you do not need to worry any of these financial traps.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5b4dca elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f5b4dca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Speech-Therapy-adult.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-3454\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Speech-Therapy-adult.jpg 600w, https:\/\/project.hexondigital.com\/adacarenew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Speech-Therapy-adult-300x150.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-309743c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"309743c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\"><h3 style=\"padding-top: 1.15em; letter-spacing: normal; white-space: normal;\">Managing and spending your funds<\/h3><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54434fce elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"54434fce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you\u2019re self-managing your Home Care Package, you\u2019ll need to track your package budget.
