Are you providing support to a relative or a friend who has ongoing illness, disability or is elderly?
A carers assessment works out whether you qualify for support and services that can help you in your caregiver role.

As set in the South Australia’s Plan for Ageing Well (2021-2025) ‘Inspire, Motivate and Innovate’ MCCSA will be working towards helping older South Australians
to become more resilient and communities to become more innovative, inclusive and accepting of people of all ages. MCCSA acknowledges the important role community leaders play in making sure that both older people and the communities have knowledge and understanding of resources and strategies that support people to age well, safeguard their rights and prevent elder abuse.
Getting an assessment is the first step to getting help!
