How much does residential aged care actually cost?
It’s one of the most common — and confusing — questions families ask.
The truth is, there isn’t just one fee.
Aged care costs are made up of several parts, including:
✔️ Accommodation (your room)
✔️ Daily living costs (meals, cleaning, laundry)
✔️ Care costs (based on your financial situation)
✔️ Optional lifestyle services
Each of these can vary depending on your circumstances, which is why it can feel so complex.
And then there are important decisions to make…
Do you pay a lump sum (RAD) or daily payments (DAP)?
What happens to your home?
How do you ensure you have enough cashflow?
We’ve broken it all down in a simple guide.
