National emergency alert test - 2:00pm, Monday 27 July

Next week you may notice something new on your phone. The Australian Government is launching AusAlert, a new national warning system that sends emergency messages straight to compatible phones, tablets and smart watches.

A test message goes out to all compatible devices across Australia at 2:00pm, Monday 27 July 2026. If your device is on, it may vibrate and play a loud, siren-like sound for around ten seconds. It's only a test - there's nothing you need to do.

That sound can feel loud or distressing for some people, including those with sensory sensitivities. If you or someone you care for might be startled, give them a gentle heads up beforehand.

AusAlert is built to be accessible - it can vibrate and light up the screen, be heard through hearing aids or cochlear implants, work with bed shakers, and read messages aloud with text-to-speech.

Two funding streams. One trusted team.

Home care in Australia usually comes through one of two funding streams - the NDIS, or a Support at Home aged care package. The good news? Goldstar Care delivers across both.

So if your funding changes, or you move from one stream to the other, nothing about your actual care has to change. Same care plan. Same care team. The same familiar faces at the door. The only thing that shifts is the paperwork behind the scenes - and that's our job, not yours.

Care that changes with you, not against you.

Not sure which stream you're on? Give us a call and we'll help you make sense of it. (03) 5222 5399

Community is more than just getting out, it's about staying connected to the people, places and activities that make life meaningful.

Whether it's meeting friends for coffee, learning a new skill, joining a local group, or building confidence to travel independently, the right support can make all the difference.

At Goldstar Care, we tailor community access around your goals, interests and independence. From one-on-one support to structured group programs and life skills, we're here to help you participate in life your way.

Our community supports include:
Community Participation Programs
Group & Centre-Based Activities
Daily Living & Life Skills
Innovative Community Participation

Because everyone deserves the opportunity to build confidence, develop new skills, and stay connected to what matters most.

From 1 October 2026, older Australians receiving in-home support will benefit from an important change under the Australian Government's Support at Home program, with personal care services set to be fully funded for eligible participants.

Announced as part of the Australian Government's broader aged care reforms, this change reflects a growing recognition of the vital role personal care plays in supporting older Australians to live safely, independently and with dignity in their own homes.

For many older people, personal care isn't simply about assistance with daily tasks. It's about maintaining dignity, confidence and independence while continuing to live safely at home.

Under the upcoming changes, approved personal care services will move into the fully funded clinical supports category. This means eligible participants with available funding in their Support at Home budget will no longer face out-of-pocket costs for services such as:

* Assistance with showering and personal hygiene
* Help with dressing and grooming
* Non-clinical continence support
* Other essential personal care activities

At Goldstar Care Solutions, we see firsthand the difference quality personal care makes in a person's daily life. These services often provide the foundation that enables older Australians to remain connected to their community, maintain their routines and continue living independently for longer.

Removing additional costs for personal care is a significant step towards making aged care more accessible and equitable. It reduces financial pressure on participants and their families while ensuring people can access the support they need without having to make difficult decisions based on affordability.

As Australia's aged care system continues to evolve, reforms that prioritise wellbeing, dignity and quality of life are essential. We welcome initiatives that help older Australians receive the support they need while remaining in the place they most want to be - their own home.

The changes will take effect from 1 October 2026 and apply to eligible services delivered from that date onwards.

For older Australians and families navigating the aged care system, understanding how these changes may impact individual care arrangements will be an important part of planning for the future.

At Goldstar Care Solutions, we're committed to helping our community stay informed and supported through every stage of their aged care journey. To find out more information on any of these changes or to speak to one of our team. Contact us at 03 5222 5399 or [email protected]
