Carrick Aland hosts ‘Planning for Aged Care’ events to help families choose confidently
Important Australian Aged Care reform now in place
As Australia’s aged care landscape continues to evolve, more families are facing difficult and often emotional decisions about retirement living, care options and how to fund them.
To help navigate these challenges, Carrick Aland is hosting two Planning for Aged Care events designed to guide individuals and families through this important stage of life with clarity and confidence.
Each event will explore the differences between support at home, retirement villages and residential care, and how the new fee structure starting 1 November 2025 may affect what people pay for aged care services.
Carrick Aland Director Greg Burton will also share practical insights and real-life case studies that demonstrate how timely advice can make a major difference to care choices, financial outcomes and peace of mind.
“Planning ahead is key,” Greg said. “Understanding your options before a crisis happens can mean the difference between rushed, stressful decisions and a well-considered plan that preserves both lifestyle and financial security.”
Participants will learn how to:
- Plan effectively for each stage of retirement
- Understand the costs and government support available for aged care
- Manage home ownership and care contributions
- Avoid common pitfalls when transitioning into care.
Each Planning for Aged Care event is ideal for retirees, pre-retirees and family members supporting ageing parents who want to make informed, confident decisions about the future.
Seats are limited — register today to secure your place and start planning ahead with confidence.
