Make aged care decisions with confidence and care
Moving a parent or relative into a nursing home or aged care facility can be overwhelmingly difficult. You’re worried for your loved one’s physical and emotional safety, and you have to make significant financial decisions while feeling stressed and mentally exhausted.
Aged care options and fee structures are often highly complex and it’s difficult to find the answers to your questions. You don’t want to make the wrong choice, but you’re under pressure.
RFS Advice’s specialist aged care advice team is here to support you every step of the way. We’ll guide you through the process, explaining things in plain language and making sure all the details are taken care of.
All the ribbons tied
You won't have to worry about the paperwork or red tape. We'll deal with Centrelink, complete the necessary forms and liaise with the aged care facility – so you can devote your energy to your family.
Keep your family's wealth safe
Keep your loved one’s hard-earned money safe. We’ll help you make sure you aren’t giving more than necessary to the aged care facility or the government.
A sustainable solution
Feel confident knowing your loved one will receive the best possible care, and that you have sufficient funds set aside to support them for as long as needed.
