Home Care Packages
Home Care Package (HCP)
Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP)/ Meals on Wheels (MOW)
The CHSP provides entry-level support for older people who need some help to stay at home. Service providers work with them to maintain their independence and keep them as well as possible.

We work with a small community of providers and city councils who are eligible for the CHSP/MOW funding, please check with your provider if they can offer this service.

My Aged Care Referral Code
We DO NOT accept the My Aged Care referral code as a form of reference for your Home Care Package. This code must be given to an Aged Care Provider who has the ability to access your funding and allocate it to services on your behalf. To utilise your funding for Home Chef meals, your provider needs to send us a referral form on your behalf with all of your details before you can start ordering.
If you have an Aged Care Provider and would like to receive meals from Home Chef, please speak to your co-ordinator about sending a referral through to us and our friendly package team will be in contact with you to walk you through the package details once we’ve received your referral.
