HomeMade Community Partnerships

HomeMade Community Partnerships is a sustainable solution designed to help older people in rural and regional Australia stay in their homes for longer.

HomeMade Community Partnerships takes a hands-on approach to providing more support options for older people in the communities they know and love, building local pride and contributing to economic development.

How it works

In case you missed it: The Support at Home program is formerly known as Home Care Package (HCP) services. Read more about Support at Home.

A 10% care management fee applies. This is a government mandated allocation which is set aside from your funding and is given to your provider to cover care management.

Get to know the people dedicated to helping coordinators manage care for their local community, every step of the way.

I’m Misty, Senior Manager of HomeMade Community Partnerships and a Registered Nurse. After years in emergency departments across WA, I moved into aged care to improve access for older people in rural and remote communities.

Fun fact: When I’m not working, you will find me in the gym, on a hike, at the beach or trying to learn piano!

Hi, I’m Dex, and I’m a Relationship Manager at HomeMade. I work closely with new coordinators through onboarding, making the aged care sector and HomeMade processes as uncomplicated as possible. Seeing coordinators thrive in their first few months is what drives me.

Fun fact: In my spare time, I’m usually in the water polo pool or on the golf course!

I’m Georgia, a Relationship Manager with over three years in aged care, passionate about building trusted partnerships and helping coordinators feel confident and connected.

Fun fact: I competed nationally in diving. My party trick is still surprising people with a flip off the side of a boat!

My name is Diane, and I’m the Community Partnerships Operations Manager. I’m an experienced operations leader with a background in disaster management, criminal justice and community partnership development. I’m passionate about bringing people, services and systems together.

As a Support Specialist, I support coordinators across onboarding and day-to-day processes here in the Community Partnerships team. I bring a background in supply chain from the medical device industry and love finding efficient solutions.

I’m Taryn, your Support Specialist on the Community Partnerships team! I handle pre-boarding, needs assessments, agreements, and pretty much whatever needs doing. I joined Community Partnerships in November 2025, and it’s by far my favourite place to be.
