My Aged Care

What is My Aged Care?

My Aged Care is the Australian Government's central hub for accessing and managing aged care services. It is designed to help older Australians, their families, and carers find the support they need to maintain their independence, health, and quality of life.

​

How My Aged Care Helps with Exercise Physiology:

Exercise physiology services, available through My Aged Care, are tailored programs designed to improve strength, mobility, and fitness for older adults. These services are particularly beneficial for managing chronic health conditions, reducing falls risk, and promoting long-term independence. If you qualify for support through My Aged Care, part of your treatment with an exercise physiologist may be subsidized.

​

Getting Started:

  1. Contact My Aged Care: You can reach them via their website or by calling 1800 200 422.

  2. Assessment: A trained assessor will discuss your needs and determine your eligibility for services.

  3. Create a Plan: Based on the assessment, you’ll receive a tailored care plan outlining the services you’re eligible for, including exercise physiology if applicable.

  4. Access Services: Choose your preferred service providers and start receiving support.

 

Why Exercise Matters as You Age:

Regular physical activity helps improve balance, reduce pain from chronic conditions, and boost energy levels, making it easier to enjoy everyday life. Working with an accredited exercise physiologist ensures your exercise plan is safe, effective, and customized to your needs.
