At Your Lifestyle Centre @Beenleigh, we have a transparent fee structure, so you know exactly what your charges are for and have no unexpected extra costs.

When considering a Home Care Package service, it is important to understand all costs involved. The minimum visit scheduled will be 30 minutes (excluding medication administering and prompting) and the scheduled visit time will be charged unless circumstances beyond the client’s control cause this to be shortened, or the client requires the staff member to stay longer. In both these circumstances the actual time will be charged. Please note that fees and charges may be updated periodically to reflect changes in the costs of delivering services. You will be given reasonable notice of any changes to the fee schedule.

Package Management Fee – This fee is calculated at 12% of your Home Care Package subsidy

Package management fees cover the costs for the ongoing management for the administration of your package including package budget preparation, monthly statements, communications reconciling funding, fees, and subsidies, arranging brokered services and goods and equipment purchases, rostering and scheduling, information technology and data security inclusive of government reporting and compliance to meet Government Guidelines for Home Care Packages.

“I cannot express my appreciation enough for YLC Beenleigh for the support they provide to my elderly parents. They ensure my parents feel important and supported especially that my father suffers from dementia and life can be very challenging.”

Excellent local community centre
“Local community centre with an excellent function room. Lots of parking, but maybe not quite enough for a big event.”
