Monthly Deep-Dive Webinars

Participate in practical, monthly webinars designed to help you embed home care program changes and regulatory requirements into day-to-day practice. Each session focuses on real operational impact, implementation challenges, and what providers need to know.

Our growing knowledge base

As providers move from implementation into embedding new requirements, the Knowledge Hub continues to grow with you. Content evolves from practical Aged Care Act and Support at Home implementation tools into resources that support registration renewal and audit readiness for all types of home care providers, including detailed implementation plans, checklists, and simple guides such as creating a customer journey map. These real-world resources help you assess readiness, address gaps, and embed change with confidence.

Monthly Home Care Updates

Our curated monthly home care update is delivered as a live webinar, bringing together Aged Care Act, Support at Home and CHSP updates in one clear, trusted session. We summarise key announcements, new resources, changes and clarifications, and create space for questions so providers can gain clarity and reassurance. By consolidating information into one update, we reduce the time and worry spent tracking multiple emails and sources.

Expert Help Desk Support

When something doesn’t quite make sense, or you need help finding the right information, our Expert Help Desk is here to support you. Simply post a question in the Ask an Expert forum to receive clear, practical guidance from experienced advisers. We help with day-to-day questions, clarifications and operational issues so you’re never left figuring things out alone.

“I must say, I really appreciate the way your team distils key information about the reforms and the new Support at Home program, providing us with regular updates. This allows me to be more selective in choosing webinars or conferences to attend. The use of simple language and graphics to illustrate complex ideas and policies greatly helps me in communicating these changes internally and preparing our team for the transition.”

Madeline Yan

Support at Home Manager – Australian Nursing Home Foundation

“We were one of the fortunate Tasmanian service providers to have been granted access to Support at Home HQ for one year through TasCOSS funding. My experience so far has been very positive. I have been able to access a number of webinars that are particularly relevant to our organisation as a CHSP service provider. I like the fact that if I cannot access a webinar when it is delivered, I can access the recording at another time. In our busy CHSP world. This is a fantastic option, as I do not miss out on vital information. Information provided in the webinars is relevant and current, and I must congratulate the Enkindle team on being up to speed with what is happening in the sector, even with the recent budget announcements and a webinar within two days! I am able to know what is happening with the aged care reforms and can then share any relevant updates with staff, committee members, volunteers, clients and our community.”

Teresa Grabek

Welfare Programs Coordinator – Polish Welfare Office

“The comprehensive support and resources available through the HQ have been invaluable in helping us navigate the changes brought by the Aged Care Act and the strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards. We feel more prepared and confident in our ability to comply with the new regulations and to continue delivering high-quality support to our clients. Overall, Support at Home HQ has been a game-changer for us, enhancing our operational capabilities and ensuring that we stay ahead in these times of transition.”

Ana Sas

Aged Care Services Manager – Multilink Community Services

“Support at Home HQ has been extremely valuable for our organisations. The monthly sector information webinars and ongoing workshops have been instrumental in clarifying the details of the Reforms. However, the greatest value lies in having access to Jennene and Tash’s expertise. Their availability to answer our many questions and help us interpret often ambiguous and vague legislative details has been immensely helpful! Would highly recommend Support at Home HQ to anyone involved in guiding their organisation through the next stage of Aged Care Reforms.”

Sarah Ah Loy

Quality Specialist – Five Good Friends

“The training and updates provided by Support at Home HQ is thorough, informative and attuned to the needs of home care providers. The presenters offer honest, ‘no frills’ advice, drawing on their extensive experience and up-to-date knowledge of the Aged Care Reform agenda. Their prompt responses to queries and practical suggestions have been instrumental in positioning our business for success amidst the changes.”

Julie Strawhorn

Director – SereneCare

“Congratulations to you and your team for establishing the sector’s most practical Support at Home HQ. Our team members find the webinars valuable, as they provide practical tools and guidance for responding to reforms and the new Support at Home program. Additionally, webinars covering customer experience (CX) help us understand the aged care customer journey and adopt more outward-focused business models. Furthermore, the webinars and information of home care technology provide expert knowledge in scoping system changes and selecting vendors, which is useful for helping small and mid-sized organisations like ours take the first steps without bringing in expensive IT experts. We really appreciate the regular updates by the Enkindle Team, as your team has summarised and converted key information into digestible notes for the busy manager. The clever use of simple language and graphics to illustrate complex ideas and policies helps our team navigate the waves of change.”

Ada Cheng

CEO – Australian Nursing Home Foundation

“I would highly recommend Home Care providers attend the Support at Home and New Aged Care Act Implementation workshops being delivered by Support at Home HQ. I found the summary information regarding the aged care reforms, coupled with the project management resources, extremely helpful. This has really assisted our organisation in planning for the implementation of the Support at Home Program and is enabling our teams to get a head start with transition planning.”

CEO -Just Better Care

Support at Home HQ was created to support home care providers through the introduction of the new Aged Care Act, the new Support at Home program and changes to the Commonwealth Home Support Program. However, if you are an industry stakeholder who needs to keep abreast of changes (e.g. a Care Finder, Primary Health Network, Software Vendor, Tertiary Institution, or National Disability Insurance Scheme Providers), we would love you to join.

Support at Home HQ is solely focused and specialises in home care. We are not a political lobbyist and don’t play a role in representing the industry to the Government. Our resources are focused on providing expert and practical information, advice, and tools to help home care providers transition to the new Aged Care Act. We have over 45 years of combined executive experience in leading and operating aged and community care services. Our strengths include expert understanding of legislation and home care programs, strategy, planning, customer experience, workforce strategy, and digital transformation.

Yes, you can access free updates elsewhere, but doing so takes time and rarely translates into clear, practical recommendations for your service. Support at Home HQ brings together ready-to-use templates, checklists, tools and expert guidance, created by former home care leaders, to help you turn information into action with confidence and clarity.

Our monthly home care update is designed to ensure you always have the most up-to-date information in one trusted place. The resource hub is updated every month with new tools, templates and explainers, and when major announcements are made, relevant resources are updated or released immediately, so you’re never working from outdated information.

Support at Home HQ was designed with small providers in mind, recognising that one-to-one consulting is often out of reach. Many SAH, CHSP, DVA and NDIS providers don’t have large internal teams or dedicated specialists, so we offer a practical, scalable way to access expert guidance, tools and support without hiring extra staff. Our tiered pricing model includes discounted subscriptions for smaller organisations, making high-quality support accessible when it’s needed most.

Large providers gain speed, consistency and quality across multiple sites, programs and teams. Instead of reinventing tools internally, HQ gives your workforce a single, reliable source of truth to streamline implementation and reduce variation in practice.

While 1 November marked the commencement of the new arrangements, most providers are still implementing and embedding changes across systems, processes, pricing, workforce and governance. Guidance continues to evolve, and further planned changes are already on the horizon. Support at Home HQ supports providers beyond go-live, helping you embed requirements into day-to-day practice, stay aligned as updates and clarifications are released, and prepare for what’s coming next, including registration renewal and future pricing changes.

Transition requirements are only accelerating. Systems, processes, pricing, governance and workforce models all need redesign well after November. Joining HQ now means you get the ongoing tools, training and expert guidance required to stay ahead, avoid rushed compliance, and ensure your organisation is genuinely ready for what comes next.

Upcoming topics include a governing body series with practical tools and templates for boards and management committees, workforce planning tools, and resources to strengthen customer engagement and compliance. We’re also developing targeted support for provider registration renewal, audits and provider applications, guidance to help services prepare for fixed pricing, and dedicated resources to support CHSP providers transitioning to Support at Home. If there’s a topic you’d like us to cover, email us at subscriptions@supportathomehq.com.au,  our content is shaped by what providers tell us they need.
