Securing a place in a residential care facility can take time, especially if there is a waiting list. If possible, you should apply right away to join our waiting list.

The cost of aged care can seem confusing with a long list of fees and charges. To put it simply, in any aged care home you will have to pay a charge for every day you stay. Just like running a home there will be the basic costs of food, electricity, washing and cleaning. The Australian Government pays for the bulk of aged care in Australia, but you will be expected to contribute an amount, based on your assets. To help plan your transition to residential care you may make an appointment with our finance team to discuss a Residential Care Financial Assessment process.

Although we are proudly Christian, our homes welcome all people who are eligible for a residential care placement. Please note however, that our facilities are alcohol and smoke free.

Applying for respite care is a simple three-step process: 1. Contact ASL Admissions Representative to check room availability. You will need to provide a copy of your current Aged Care Client Record (ACCR) from the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) to prove your eligibility

We do give our current residents priority when considering aged care places, but you do not have to be a current resident to apply. It is important to be on our waiting list as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

Everyone, regardless of religious or cultural background, who can no longer live independently and who has been assessed by ACAT as eligible for a residential care placement, can apply to join our waiting list.
