You can then access your account for guidance on managing challenges and navigate the system.

*More about your HCP Care Plan


Work with your Home Care Provider to discuss what type of supports you need in your Care Plan to optimise your health and wellbeing when living with dementia (or cognitive impairment). Your Care Plan will then then determine what can be purchased from your package budget.

Including My Dementia Companion as part of your Care Plan will enable you to:

  • Gain practical guidance, with a re-ablement approach, to support you on your dementia (or cognitive impairment) journey at home, safely and independently

  • Access information at your fingertips at any time, including understanding dementia, communication, changed behaviour strategies, carer support, environmental changes, respite care and much more.

​​

If your Care Provider has any questions about this, please feel free to contact us. We would like to thank the Department of Health and Aged Care for clarifying that My Dementia Companion can be funded through a client's Home Care Package, where it is part of their assessed needs and Care Plan.

​

Designed here in Australia, My Dementia Companion is the world’s first practical dementia tool guiding and supporting you through your dementia journey.  Whether your Home Care Package is Care Managed or Self Managed, the tool will help you understand what is happening for you and what supports you need to live well with dementia.  Planning in the early stages of dementia have proven successful in the later stages as the disease progresses.
